NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Variables::ProhibitLoopOnHash - Don't write loops on hashes, only on keys and values of hashes
VERSION
version 0.008
DESCRIPTION
When "looping over hashes," we mean looping over hash keys or hash values. If you forgot to call "keys" or "values" you will accidentally loop over both. foreach my $foo (%hash) {...} # not ok action() for %hash; # not ok foreach my $foo ( keys %hash ) {...} # ok action() for values %hash; # ok An effort is made to detect expressions: action() for %hash ? keys %hash : (); # ok action() for %{ $hash{'stuff'} } ? keys %{ $hash{'stuff'} } : (); # ok (Granted, the second example there doesn't make much sense, but I have found a variation of it in real code.)
CONFIGURATION
This policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
