NAME

PPI::Token::Separator - The __DATA__ and __END__ tags

INHERITANCE

PPI::Token::Separator
isa PPI::Token::Word
    isa PPI::Token
        isa PPI::Element

DESCRIPTION

Although superficially looking like a normal PPI::Token::Word object, when the __DATA__ and __END__ compiler tags appear at the beginning of a line (on supposedly) their own line, these tags become file section separators.

The indicate that the time for Perl code is over, and the rest of the file is dedicated to something else (data in the case of __DATA__) or to nothing at all (in the case of __END__).

METHODS

This class has no methods beyond what is provided by its PPI::Token::Word, PPI::Token and PPI::Element parent classes.

SUPPORT

See the support section in the main module.
