NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Documentation::RequirePodAtEnd - All POD should be after "__END__".
AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
DESCRIPTION
Perl stops processing code when it sees an "__END__" statement. So, to save processing time, it's faster to put documentation after the
"__END__". Also, writing all the POD in one place usually leads to a more cohesive document, rather than being forced to follow the layout
of your code. This policy issues violations if any POD is found before an "__END__".
CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
NOTES
Some folks like to use "=for", and "=begin", and "=end" tags to create block comments in-line with their code. Since those tags aren't
usually part of the documentation, this Policy does allows them to appear before the "__END__" statement.
=begin comments
frobulate()
Accepts: A list of things to frobulate
Returns: True if successful
=end comments
sub frobulate { ... }
