Perl::Critic::Policy::RegularExpressions::ProhibitSingleUserAContributPerl::Critic::Policy::RegularExpressions::ProhibitSingleCharAlternation(3pm)NAMEPerl::Critic::Policy::RegularExpressions::ProhibitSingleCharAlternation - Use "[abc]" instead of "a|b|c".AFFILIATIONThis Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.DESCRIPTIONCharacter classes (like "[abc]") are significantly faster than single character alternations (like "(?:a|b|c)"). This policy complains if you have more than one instance of a single character in an alternation. So "(?:a|the)" is allowed, but "(?:a|e|i|o|u)" is not. NOTE: Perl 5.10 (not released as of this writing) has major regexp optimizations which may mitigate the performance penalty of alternations, which will be rewritten behind the scenes as something like character classes. Consequently, if you are deploying exclusively on 5.10, yo might consider ignoring this policy.CONFIGURATIONThis Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.CREDITSInitial development of this policy was supported by a grant from the Perl Foundation.AUTHORChris Dolan <cdolan@cpan.org>COPYRIGHTCopyright (c) 2007-2011 Chris Dolan.
