Perl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::RequireInterpolationOfMetachars - Warns that you might have used single quotes when you really wanted double-quotes.
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
This policy warns you if you use single-quotes or q// with a string
that has unescaped metacharacters that may need interpolation. Its
hard to know for sure if a string really should be interpolated
without looking into the symbol table. This policy just makes an
educated guess by looking for metacharacters and sigils which usually
indicate that the string should be interpolated.
use vars:
use vars '$x'; # ok
use vars ('$y', '$z'); # ok
use vars qw< $a $b >; # ok
print 'john@foo.com'; # ok
$address = 'suzy.bar@baz.net'; # ok
The rcs_keywords option allows you to stop this policy from complaining
about things that look like RCS variables, for example, in deriving values for
$VERSION variables.
For example, if you've got code like
our ($VERSION) = (q<$Revision: 4078 $> =~ m/(\d+)/mx);
You can specify
[ValuesAndExpressions::RequireInterpolationOfMetachars]
rcs_keywords = Revision
in your .perlcriticrc to provide an exemption.
Perl's own warnings pragma also warns you about this.
