=head1 NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::Variables::ProhibitAugmentedAssignmentInDeclaration - Do not write C< my $foo .= 'bar'; >.


=head1 AFFILIATION

This Policy is part of the core L<Perl::Critic|Perl::Critic>
distribution.


=head1 DESCRIPTION

Variable declarations that also do initialization with '=' are common.
Perl also allows you to use operators like '.=', '+=', etc., but it
it is more clear to not do so.

    my $foo .= 'bar';              # same as my $foo = 'bar';
    our $foo *= 2;                 # same as our $foo = 0;
    my ( $foo, $bar ) += ( 1, 2 ); # same as my ( $foo, $bar ) = ( undef, 2 );
    local $Carp::CarpLevel += 1;   # same as local $Carp::CarpLevel = 1;
    state $foo += 2;               # adds 2 every time it's encountered

Such constructs are usually the result of botched cut-and-paste, and often are
bugs. Some produce warnings.

=head1 CONFIGURATION

There is an C<allow_our> boolean option for this Policy. If set, augmented
assignments are allowed when declaring C<our> variables. Since C<our>
variables are globally accessible, some modules will want to allow users to
initialize the variable prior to the module using the variable. Modules may
also wish to use the same our variable in different scopes without declaring
it at the outer scope.

With this option set, the following are flagged as indicated:

    our $DEBUG //= 1;           # ok

This can be enabled in your F<.perlcriticrc>:

    [Perl::Critic::Policy::Variables::ProhibitAugmentedAssignmentInDeclaration]
    allow_our = 1
