# either use syntax 'foo';
# or use syntax foo => { ... };
# or use syntax qw( foo bar ), baz => { ... };
This module activates community provided syntax extensions to Perl. You pass it a feature name, and optionally a scalar with arguments, and the dispatching system will load and install the extension in your package.
The import arguments are parsed with the Data::OptList manpage. There are no standardised options. Please consult the documentation for the specific syntax feature to find out about possible configuration options.
The passed in feature names are simply transformed: function
becomes
the Syntax::Feature::Function manpage and foo_bar
would become
Syntax::Feature::FooBar
.
syntax->import( @spec );
This method will dispatch the syntax extension setup to the specified feature handlers for the calling package.
syntax->import_into( $into, @spec );
Same as import, but performs the setup in $into
instead of the calling
package.
syntax->unimport( @features );
This method will trigger uninstallations of the @features
from the
calling package.
syntax->unimport_from( $from, @features );
Same as unimport, but will uninstall the @features
from $from
.
the Syntax::Feature::Function manpage, the Devel::Declare manpage
