PPI::Statement::Unknown(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				PPI::Statement::Unknown(3)

NAME
PPI::Statement::Unknown - An unknown or transient statement INHERITANCE
PPI::Statement::Unknown isa PPI::Statement isa PPI::Node isa PPI::Element DESCRIPTION
The "PPI::Statement::Unknown" class is used primarily during the lexing process to hold elements that are known to be statement, but for which the exact "type" of statement is as yet unknown, and requires further tokens in order to resolve the correct type. They should not exist in a fully parse valid document, and if any exists they indicate either a problem in Document, or possibly (by allowing it to get through unresolved) a bug in PPI::Lexer. METHODS
"PPI::Statement::Unknown" has no additional methods beyond the default ones provided by PPI::Statement, PPI::Node and PPI::Element. SUPPORT
See the support section in the main module. AUTHOR
