156.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
157Despite its name, the \f(CW\*(C`PPI::Statement::Include\*(C'\fR class covers a number
158of different types of statement that cover all statements starting with
159\&\f(CW\*(C`use\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`no\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`require\*(C'\fR.
160.PP
161But basically, they cover three situations.
162.PP
163Firstly, a dependency on a particular version of perl (for which the
164\&\f(CW\*(C`version\*(C'\fR method returns true), a pragma (for which the \f(CW\*(C`pragma\*(C'\fR method
165returns true, or the loading (and unloading via no) of modules.
166.SH "METHODS"
167.IX Header "METHODS"
168\&\f(CW\*(C`PPI::Statement::Include\*(C'\fR has a number of methods in addition to the standard
169PPI::Statement, PPI::Node and PPI::Element methods.
170.SS "type"
171.IX Subsection "type"
172The \f(CW\*(C`type\*(C'\fR method returns the general type of statement (\f(CW\*(Aquse\*(Aq\fR, \f(CW\*(Aqno\*(Aq\fR
173or \f(CW\*(Aqrequire\*(Aq\fR).
174.PP
175Returns the type as a string, or \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR if the type cannot be detected.
176.SS "module"
177.IX Subsection "module"
178The \f(CW\*(C`module\*(C'\fR method returns the module name specified in any include
179statement. This \f(CW\*(C`includes\*(C'\fR pragma names, because pragma are implemented
180as modules. (And lets face it, the definition of a pragma can be fuzzy
181at the best of times in any case)
182.PP
183This covers all of these...
184.PP
185.Vb 4
186\& use strict;
187\& use My::Module;
188\& no strict;
189\& require My::Module;
190.Ve
191.PP
192\&...but does not cover any of these...
193.PP
194.Vb 3
195\& use 5.006;
196\& require 5.005;
197\& require "explicit/file/name.pl";
198.Ve
199.PP
200Returns the module name as a string, or \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR if the include does
201not specify a module name.
202.SS "module_version"
203.IX Subsection "module_version"
204The \f(CW\*(C`module_version\*(C'\fR method returns the minimum version of the module
205required by the statement, if there is one.
206.SS "pragma"
207.IX Subsection "pragma"
208The \f(CW\*(C`pragma\*(C'\fR method checks for an include statement's use as a
209pragma, and returns it if so.
210.PP
211Or at least, it claims to. In practice it's a lot harder to say exactly
212what is or isn't a pragma, because the definition is fuzzy.
213.PP
214The \f(CW\*(C`intent\*(C'\fR of a pragma is to modify the way in which the parser works.
215This is done though the use of modules that do various types of internals
216magic.
217.PP
218For now, \s-1PPI\s0 assumes that any \*(L"module name\*(R" that is only a set of
219lowercase letters (and perhaps numbers, like \f(CW\*(C`use utf8;\*(C'\fR). This
220behaviour is expected to change, most likely to something that knows
221the specific names of the various \*(L"pragmas\*(R".
222.PP
223Returns the name of the pragma, or false ('') if the include is not a
224pragma.
225.SS "version"
226.IX Subsection "version"
227The \f(CW\*(C`version\*(C'\fR method checks for an include statement that introduces a
228dependency on the version of \f(CW\*(C`perl\*(C'\fR the code is compatible with.
229.PP
230This covers two specific statements.
231.PP
232.Vb 2
233\& use 5.006;
234\& require 5.006;
235.Ve
236.PP
237Currently the version is returned as a string, although in future the version
238may be returned as a version object. If you want a numeric representation,
239use \f(CW\*(C`version_literal()\*(C'\fR. Returns false if the statement is not a version
240dependency.
241.SS "version_literal"
242.IX Subsection "version_literal"
243The \f(CW\*(C`version_literal\*(C'\fR method has the same behavior as \f(CW\*(C`version()\*(C'\fR, but the
244version is returned as a numeric literal. Returns false if the statement is
245not a version dependency.
246.PP
247The \f(CW\*(C`arguments\*(C'\fR method gives you the rest of the statement after the the
248module/pragma and module version, i.e. the stuff that will be used to
249construct what gets passed to the module's \f(CW\*(C`import()\*(C'\fR subroutine. This does
250include the comma, etc. operators, but doesn't include non-significant direct
251children or any final semicolon.
