NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::logicLAB::ProhibitUseLib - simple policy prohibiting the use of 'use lib'

AFFILIATION

This policy is a policy in the Perl::Critic::logicLAB distribution.

VERSION

This documentation describes version 0.03

DESCRIPTION

The 'use lib' statement, hardcodes the include path to be used. This can give issues when moving modules and scripts between diverse environments.

use lib '/some/path';                                       #not ok
use lib qw(/you/do/not/want/to/go/down/this/path /or/this); #not ok

Instead use the environment variable PERL5LIB

#bash
export PERL5LIB='/some/path/some/where'

#tcsh and csh
setenv PERL5LIB '/some/path/some/where'

This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
