Description
Conway suggests that all elements in a multi-line list should be separated by commas, including the last
element. This makes it a little easier to re-order the list by cutting and pasting.
my @list = ($foo,
$bar,
$baz); #not ok
my @list = ($foo,
$bar,
$baz,); #ok
Name
Perl::Critic::Policy::CodeLayout::RequireTrailingCommas - Put a comma at the end of every multi-line list
declaration, including the last one.
Notes
In the PPI parlance, a "list" is almost anything with parentheses. I've tried to make this Policy smart
by targeting only "lists" that have at least one element and are being assigned to something. However,
there may be some edge cases that I haven't covered. If you find one, send me a note.
