Subject: parse of 2*foo()
Date: Sun, 22 Jun 2008 09:02:00 +1000
To: bug-PPI [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Kevin Ryde <user42 [...] zip.com.au>
PPI version 1.204_01 parses "2*foo()" as PPI::Document PPI::Statement PPI::Token::Number '2' PPI::Token::Symbol '*foo' PPI::Structure::List ( ... ) where I hoped the "*" might come back as a multiply operator not a typeglob thingie. I guess "*" is ambiguous, but after a number it would always be a multiply, would it? (I struck this in Perl::Critic::Dynamic which went digging for *foo instead of &foo ...)
Fixed, and regression test added.
