Perl-Critic-Policy-Variables-ProhibitUnusedVarsStricter is Copyright (C) 2012-2022, 2024 by Thomas R. Wyant, III

DESCRIPTION

This package contains a more comprehensive version of the core Perl::Critic policy Variables::ProhibitUnusedVariables. It is not intended as a replacement for the core policy, but as an alternative for people who want a more thorough check at the (possible) risk of (hopefully only) a few false positives.

Perl::Critic is a prerequisite for this package. It is the intent that the prerequisites of this package be those of Perl::Critic, so no extra stuff should be needed.

INSTALLATION

This package is installable by either of the two usual incantations:

tar -xzf \
Perl-Critic-Policy-Variables-ProhibitUnusedVarsStricter-9.999.tar
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

or

tar -xzf \
Perl-Critic-Policy-Variables-ProhibitUnusedVarsStricter-9.999.tar
perl Build.PL
./Build
./Build test
sudo ./Build install

You should substitute the appropriate program name for 'make', eg nmake (typically) under MSWin32, or mms or mmk under VMS. See ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/Softlib/MSLFILES/nmake15.exe for a copy of nmake for MSWin32 if you need it.

Of course, since it's pure Perl, you can just expand the kit and drop the .pm file into the Perl/Critic/Policy/Variables/ directory (creating it if necessary) in the appropriate place in your @INC directories.
