NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Variables::ProtectPrivateVars - Prevent access to private vars in other packages.
AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
DESCRIPTION
By convention Perl authors (like authors in many other languages) indicate private methods and variables by inserting a leading underscore before the identifier. This policy catches attempts to access private variables from outside the package itself.
CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
HISTORY
This policy is inspired by a similar test in B::Lint
