NAME

Perl::Critic::Community::Utils - Utility functions for the Community policy set

DESCRIPTION

This module contains utility functions for use in Perl::Critic::Community policies. All functions are exportable on demand.

FUNCTIONS

is_empty_return

 my $bool = is_empty_return($elem);

Tests whether a PPI::Token::Word "return" element represents an empty "return" statement. This function returns false for return().

is_structural_block

 my $bool = is_structural_block($elem);

Tests whether a PPI::Structure::Block element is structural, and does not introduce a new calling context. This function currently only returns true for blocks in compound statements such as "if" and "foreach", but may be extended to cover more cases in the future.
