NAME

       Perl::Critic::PolicyParameter::Behavior - Default type-specific actions for a parameter.

DESCRIPTION

       Provides a standard set of functionality for a Perl::Critic::PolicyParameter so that the
       developer of a policy does not have to provide it her/himself.  The developer can override
       most of the functionality in the subclasses; these are just defaults.

       All subclasses have singleton instances held onto by Perl::Critic::PolicyParameter.

INTERFACE SUPPORT

       This is considered to be a non-public class.  Its interface is subject to change without
       notice.

METHODS

       "initialize_parameter( $parameter, $specification )"
           Plug in the functionality this behavior provides into the parameter, based upon the
           configuration provided by the specification.  The configuration items looked for
           depends upon the specific behavior subclass.

       "generate_parameter_description( $parameter )"
           Create a description of the parameter, based upon the description on the parameter
           itself, but enhancing it with information from this behavior.

           Note that this may return "undef" if the parameter itself doesn't have a description.
           Also, the returned value may include multiple lines.
