.IX Title "PPIx::QuoteLike::Token 3pm"
.TH PPIx::QuoteLike::Token 3pm "2018-07-22" "perl v5.26.2" "User Contributed Perl Documentation"
.\" For nroff, turn off justification.  Always turn off hyphenation; it makes
.\" way too many mistakes in technical documents.
.if n .ad l
.nh
.SH "NAME"
PPIx::QuoteLike::Token \- Represent any token.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
This is an abstract class, and should not be instantiated by the user.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This Perl module represents the base of the token hierarchy.
.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "METHODS"
This class supports the following public methods:
.SS "content"
.IX Subsection "content"
.Vb 1
\& say $token\->content();
.Ve
.PP
This method returns the text that makes up the token.
.SS "error"
.IX Subsection "error"
.Vb 1
\& say $token\->error();
.Ve
.PP
This method returns the error text. This will be \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR unless the
token actually represents an error.
.SS "parent"
.IX Subsection "parent"
.Vb 1
\& my $parent = $token\->parent();
.Ve
.PP
This method returns the token's parent, which will be the
PPIx::QuoteLike object that contains it.
.SS "next_sibling"
.IX Subsection "next_sibling"
.Vb 1
\& my $next = $token\->next_sibling();
.Ve
.PP
This method returns the token after the invocant, or nothing if there is
none.
.SS "perl_version_introduced"
.IX Subsection "perl_version_introduced"
This method returns the version of Perl in which the element was
introduced. This will be at least 5.000. Before 5.006 I am relying on
the \fIperldelta\fR, \fIperlre\fR, and \fIperlop\fR documentation, since I have
been unable to build earlier Perls. Since I have found no documentation
before 5.003, I assume that anything found in 5.003 is also in 5.000.
.PP
Since this all depends on my ability to read and understand masses of
documentation, the results of this method should be viewed with caution,
if not downright skepticism.
.PP
There are also cases which are ambiguous in various ways. For those see
\&\*(L"\s-1RESTRICTIONS\*(R"\s0 in PPIx::Regexp, and especially
\&\*(L"Changes in Syntax\*(R" in PPIx::Regexp.
.SS "perl_version_removed"
.IX Subsection "perl_version_removed"
This method returns the version of Perl in which the element was
removed. If the element is still valid the return is \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR.
.PP
All the \fIcaveats\fR to
\&\fIperl_version_introduced()\fR apply here also,
though perhaps less severely since although many features have been
introduced since 5.0, few have been removed.
.SS "previous_sibling"
.IX Subsection "previous_sibling"
.Vb 1
\& my $prev = $token\->previous_sibling();
.Ve
.PP
This method returns the token before the invocant, or nothing if there
is none.
.SS "significant"
.IX Subsection "significant"
.Vb 2
\& $token\->significant()
\&     and say \*(Aqsignificant\*(Aq;
.Ve
.PP
This Boolean method returns a true value if the token is significant,
and a false one otherwise.
.SS "snext_sibling"
.IX Subsection "snext_sibling"
.Vb 1
\& my $next = $token\->snext_sibling();
.Ve
.PP
This method returns the significant token after the invocant, or nothing
if there is none.
.SS "sprevious_sibling"
.IX Subsection "sprevious_sibling"
.Vb 1
\& my $prev = $token\->sprevious_sibling();
.Ve
.PP
This method returns the significant token before the invocant, or
nothing if there is none.
