NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Bangs::ProhibitCommentedOutCode
DESCRIPTION
Commented-out code is often a sign of a place where the developer is unsure of how the code should be. If historical information about the code is important, then keep it in your version control system.
CONSTRUCTOR
By default, this policy attempts to look for commented out code. It does that by looking for variable assignments in code as represented by the regular expression: qr/\$[A-Za-z_].*=/ found in a comment. To change that regex, pass one into the constructor as a key-value pair, where the key is 'coderegex' and the value is a qr() constructed regex. Or specify them in your .perlcriticrc file like this:
[Bangs::ProhibitCommentedOutCode]
coderegex = qr(\$[A-Za-z_].*=/)
