NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::Modules::RequireNoMatchVarsWithUseEnglish - use English must be passed a -no_match_vars argument.

AFFILIATION

This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

DESCRIPTION

Due to unfortunate history, if you use the English module but don't pass in a -no_match_vars argument, all regular expressions in the entire program, not merely the module in question, suffer a significant performance penalty. See the English documentation for details.

use English;                              # not ok
use English '-no_match_vars';             # ok
use English qw< $ERRNO -no_match_vars>;   # ok

CONFIGURATION

This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
