NAME

       Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitStringyEval - Write "eval { my $foo; bar($foo) }" instead of "eval "my $foo; bar($foo);"".

AFFILIATION

       This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

DESCRIPTION

       The string form of "eval" is recompiled every time it is executed, whereas the block form is only compiled once.  Also, the string form
       doesn't give compile-time warnings.

	   eval "print $foo";	     # not ok
	   eval {print $foo};	     # ok

CONFIGURATION

       There is an "allow_includes" boolean option for this Policy.  If set, then strings that look like they only include a single "use" or
       "require" statement (with the possible following statement that consists of a single number) are allowed.  With this option set, the
       following are flagged as indicated:

	   eval 'use Foo';	       # ok
	   eval 'require Foo';	       # ok
	   eval "use $thingy;";        # ok
	   eval "require $thingy;";    # ok
	   eval "use $thingy; 1;";     # ok
	   eval "require $thingy; 1;"; # ok

	   eval 'use Foo; blah;';      # still not ok
	   eval 'require Foo; 2; 1;';  # still not ok
	   eval 'use $thingy;';        # still not ok
	   eval 'no Foo';	       # still not ok

       If you don't understand why the number is allowed, see Perl::Critic::Policy::ErrorHandling::RequireCheckingReturnValueOfEval.

       This option inspired by Ricardo SIGNES' Perl::Critic::Policy::Lax::ProhibitStringyEval::ExceptForRequire.

NAME

       Perl::Critic::Policy::Modules::ProhibitConditionalUseStatements - Avoid putting conditional logic around compile-time includes.

AFFILIATION

       This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

DESCRIPTION

       Modules included via "use" are loaded at compile-time.  Placing conditional logic around the "use" statement has no effect on whether the
       module will be loaded.  Doing so can also serve to confuse the reader as to the author's original intent.

       If you need to conditionally load a module you should be using "require" instead.

       This policy will catch the following forms of conditional "use" statements:

	   # if-elsif-else
	   if ($a == 1) { use Module; }
	   if ($a == 1) { } elsif ($a == 2) { use Module; }
	   if ($a == 1) { } else { use Module; }

	   # for/foreach
	   for (1..$a) { use Module; }
	   foreach (@a) { use Module; }

	   # while
	   while ($a == 1) { use Module; }

	   # unless
	   unless ($a == 1) { use Module; }

	   # until
	   until ($a == 1) { use Module; }

	   # do-condition
	   do { use Module; } if $a == 1;
	   do { use Module; } while $a == 1;
	   do { use Module; } unless $a == 1;
	   do { use Module; } until $a == 1;

	   # operator-do
	   $a == 1 || do { use Module; };
	   $a == 1 && do { use Module; };
	   $a == 1 or do { use Module; };
	   $a == 1 and do { use Module; };

	   # non-string eval
	   eval { use Module; };

       Including a module via "use" in bare blocks, standalone do blocks, or string evals is allowed.

	   # bare block
	   { use Module; }

	   # do
	   do { use Module; }

	   # string eval
	   eval "use Module";

CONFIGURATION

       This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
