man PPI::Statement::Variable () - Variable declaration statements

NAME

PPI::Statement::Variable - Variable declaration statements

DESCRIPTION

The main intent of the PPI::Statement::Variable class is to describe simple statements that explicitly declare new local or global variables.

METHODS

type

The CWtype method checks and returns the declaration type of the statement, which will be one of either 'my', 'local' or 'our'.

Returns a string or the type, or CWundef if the type cannot be detected

variables

As for several other PDOM Element types that can declare variables, the CWvariables method returns a list of the canonical forms of the variables defined by the statement.

Returns a list of the canonical string forms of variables, or the null list if it is unable to find any variables.

TO DO

- Write unit tests for this
