#NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::ClassHierarchies::ProhibitOneArgBless - Write bless {}, $class; instead of just bless {};.

#AFFILIATION

This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

#DESCRIPTION

Always use the two-argument form of bless because it allows subclasses to inherit your constructor.

sub new {
    my $class = shift;
    my $self = bless {};          # not ok
    my $self = bless {}, $class;  # ok
    return $self;
}

#CONFIGURATION

This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
