Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::RequireBracedFileHandUsertContributed PPerl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::RequireBracedFileHandleWithPrint(3pm)

NAME

       Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::RequireBracedFileHandleWithPrint - Write "print {$FH} $foo, $bar;" instead of "print $FH $foo, $bar;".

AFFILIATION

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

DESCRIPTION

       The "print" and "printf" functions have a unique syntax that supports an optional file handle argument.	Conway suggests wrapping this
       argument in braces to make it visually stand out from the other arguments.  When you put braces around any of the special package-level
       file handles like "STDOUT", "STDERR", and "DATA", you must the '*' sigil or else it won't compile under "use strict 'subs'".

	 print $FH   "Mary had a little lamb
";  #not ok
	 print {$FH} "Mary had a little lamb
";  #ok

	 print	 STDERR   $foo, $bar, $baz;  #not ok
	 print	{STDERR}  $foo, $bar, $baz;  #won't compile under 'strict'
	 print {*STDERR}  $foo, $bar, $baz;  #perfect!

CONFIGURATION

       This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.

NAME

       Perl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitMixedBooleanOperators - Write " !$foo && $bar || $baz " instead of " not $foo && $bar
       or $baz".

AFFILIATION

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

DESCRIPTION

       Conway advises against combining the low-precedence booleans ( "and or not" ) with the high-precedence boolean operators ( "&& || !" ) in
       the same expression.  Unless you fully understand the differences between the high and low-precedence operators, it is easy to misinterpret
       expressions that use both.  And even if you do understand them, it is not always clear if the author actually intended it.

	   next if not $foo || $bar;  #not ok
	   next if !$foo || $bar;     #ok
	   next if !( $foo || $bar ); #ok
