Mappings with multiple statements are even worse. They're also a maintainer's nightmare because any added complexity decreases readability precipitously. Why? Because map is traditionally a one-liner converting one array to another. Trying to cram lots of functionality into a one-liner is a bad idea in general. The best solutions to a complex mapping are: 1) write a subroutine that performs the manipulation and call that from map; 2) rewrite the map as a for loop. =head1 CAVEATS This policy currently misses some compound statements inside of the map. For example, the following code incorrectly does not trigger a violation: map { do { foo(); bar() } } @list =head1 CONFIGURATION By default this policy flags any mappings with more than one statement. While we do not recommend it, you can increase this limit as follows in a F<.perlcriticrc> file: [BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitComplexMappings] max_statements = 2 =head1 AUTHOR Chris Dolan =head1 CREDITS Initial development of this policy was supported by a grant from the Perl Foundation. =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2007-2011 Chris Dolan.
