NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::Freenode::WarningsSwitch - Scripts should not use the -w switch on the shebang line

DESCRIPTION

The -w switch enables warnings globally in a perl program, including for any modules that did not explicitly enable or disable any warnings. Some of these modules may not be designed to run with warnings enabled, but still work fine. Instead, use warnings within your own code only.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w # not ok
use warnings;      # ok

AFFILIATION

This policy is part of Perl::Critic::Freenode.
