See L for a list of built-in functions; see L for keywords. sub open {} #not ok sub exit {} #not ok sub print {} #not ok sub foreach {} #not ok sub if {} #not ok #You get the idea... Exceptions are made for C, C, C and C blocks, as well as C, C, and C subroutines. =head1 CONFIGURATION You can configure additional builtin homonyms to accept by specifying them in a space-delimited list to the C option: [Subroutines::ProhibitBuiltinHomonyms] allow = default index These are added to the default list of exemptions from this policy. So the above allows C<< sub default {} >> and C<< sub index {} >>. =head1 CAVEATS It is reasonable to declare an B method with the same name as a Perl built-in function, since they are easily distinguished from each other. However, at this time, Perl::Critic cannot tell whether a subroutine is static or an object method. =head1 AUTHOR Jeffrey Ryan Thalhammer =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2005-2022 Imaginative Software Systems.
