NAME

       Perl::Critic::Policy::ClassHierarchies::ProhibitOneArgBless - Write "bless {}, $class;" instead of just
       "bless {};".

AFFILIATION

       This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

DESCRIPTION

       Always use the two-argument form of "bless" because it allows subclasses to inherit your constructor.

           sub new {
               my $class = shift;
               my $self = bless {};          # not ok
               my $self = bless {}, $class;  # ok
               return $self;
           }

CONFIGURATION

       This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
