NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::CodeLayout::RequireTrailingCommas

DESCRIPTION

Conway suggests that all elements in a multi-line list should be separated by commas, including the last element. This makes it a little easier to re-order the list by cutting and pasting.
   my @list = ($foo,
               $bar,
               $baz);  #not ok
 
   my @list = ($foo,
               $bar,
               $baz,); #ok
 
 

NOTES

In the PPI parlance, a ``list'' is almost anything with parentheses. I've tried to make this Policy smart by targeting only ``lists'' that have at least one element and are being assigned to something. However, there may be some edge cases that I haven't covered. If you find one, send me a note.
