PPI::Statement::Unknown(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation PPI::Statement::Unknown(3)

NAME

PPI::Statement::Unknown - An unknown or transient statement

INHERITANCE

  PPI::Statement::Unknown
  isa PPI::Statement
      isa PPI::Node
          isa PPI::Element

DESCRIPTION

The "PPI::Statement::Unknown" class is used primarily during the lexing process to hold elements that are known to be statement, but for which the exact "type" of statement is as yet unknown, and requires further tokens in order to resolve the correct type.

They should not exist in a fully parse valid document, and if any exists they indicate either a problem in Document, or possibly (by allowing it to get through unresolved) a bug in PPI::Lexer.

METHODS

"PPI::Statement::Unknown" has no additional methods beyond the default ones provided by PPI::Statement, PPI::Node and PPI::Element.

SUPPORT

See the support section in the main module.
