Subject: ProhibitPerl4PackageNames versus $'

To: bug-Perl-Critic [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Kevin Ryde <user42 [...] zip.com.au>
With the debian packaged perlcritic 1.082 and perl 5.10; a file foo.pl containing just $' put through "perlcritic -2 foo.pl" produces (among other criticisms), "$'" uses the obsolete single quote package separator." at line 1, column 1. Use double colon (::) to separate package name components instead of single quotes (').. (Severity: 2) I was meaning the postmatch special variable here, not a perl4-ism. Perhaps $' could be allowed (or if not then a further explanation in the pod or the message).

Sounds like a bug to me. I'll look into it later tonight.

Fix checked in. It will be in the next release (which should be soon, if I can fix a problem on Windows). Thank you for taking the time to report this.
