perl::critic::policy::inputoutput::requirebracedfilehandlewithpr
Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::RequireBracedFileHandUsertContributed PerPerl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::RequireBracedFileHandleWithPrint(3)
NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::RequireBracedFileHandleWithPrint - Write "print {$FH} $foo, $bar;" instead of "print $FH $foo, $bar;".
AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
DESCRIPTION
The "print" and "printf" functions have a unique syntax that supports an optional file handle argument. Conway suggests wrapping this
argument in braces to make it visually stand out from the other arguments. When you put braces around any of the special package-level
file handles like "STDOUT", "STDERR", and "DATA", you must the '*' sigil or else it won't compile under "use strict 'subs'".
print $FH "Mary had a little lamb
"; #not ok
print {$FH} "Mary had a little lamb
"; #ok
print STDERR $foo, $bar, $baz; #not ok
print {STDERR} $foo, $bar, $baz; #won't compile under 'strict'
print {*STDERR} $foo, $bar, $baz; #perfect!
CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
