PPI::Document::Fragment - A fragment of a Perl Document

Author

       Adam Kennedy <adamk@cpan.org>

Description

       In some situations you might want to work with a fragment of a larger document. "PPI::Document::Fragment"
       is a class intended for this purpose.  It is functionally almost identical to a normal PPI::Document,
       except that it is not possible to get line/column positions for the elements within it, and it does not
       represent a scope.

Methods

index_locations
       Unlike when called on a PPI::Document object, you should not be attempting to find locations of things
       within a PPI::Document::Fragment, and thus any call to the "index_locations" will print a warning and
       return "undef" instead of attempting to index the locations of the Elements.

Name

       PPI::Document::Fragment - A fragment of a Perl Document

Support

       See the support section in the main module.

To Do

       Integrate this into the rest of PPI so it has actual practical uses. The most obvious would be to
       implement arbitrary cut/copy/paste more easily.
