PPIx::QuoteLike::Constant(3)

NAME
PPIx::QuoteLike::Constant - Constants needed by PPIx-QuoteLike

SYNOPSIS
This package is private to the "PPIx-QuoteLike" distribution.

DESCRIPTION
This module is private to the "PPIx-QuoteLike" package. Documentation is for the benefit of the author, who reserves the right to change or revoke anything here, including the entire module, without notice.

This module provides importable manifest constants used by multiple modules in the "PPIx-QuoteLike" package. Nothing is exported by default.

CONSTANTS
The following importable constants are provided:

  @CARP_NOT
This global variable contains the names of all modules in the package. It's not a constant in the sense of "use constant", but needs to live here for heredity reasons.

  ARRAY_REF
This manifest constant contains the value of "ref []", i.e. 'ARRAY'.

  MINIMUM_PERL
The minimum version of Perl understood by this parser, as a string. It is currently set to '5.000', since that is the minimum version of Perl accessible to the author.

  SUFFICIENT_UTF8_SUPPORT_FOR_WEIRD_DELIMITERS
A Boolean which is true if the running version of Perl has UTF-8 support sufficient for our purposes.

Currently that means 5.8.3 or greater, with the specific requirements being "use open qw{ :std :encoding(utf-8) }", "/\p{Mark}/", and the ability to parse things like "qr \N{U+FFFF}foo\N{U+FFFF}".

  VARIABLE_RE
This constant is a regular expression object that matches Perl variable names, without the leading sigil. Nothing is captured.

SUPPORT
Support is by the author. Please file bug reports at <https://github.com/trwyant/perl-PPIx-QuoteLike/issues> or in electronic mail to the author.
