( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

The PerlTidy manpage doesn't mention chained methods so I guess it doesn't handle them.

As a workaround you could format the code manually and then tell it to ignore that block with PerlTidy --format-skipping (#<<< #>>>) comments:

#<<< my $res = SOAP::Lite ->autotype(0) ->uri('http:....') ->proxy('http:...') ->function_call(); #>>>

Of course if you have hundreds of instances like this then that will quickly become a pain.

You can also force alignment by using comments at the end of each line or newlines between them (but neither of those has much advantage over the above):

my $res = SOAP::Lite # ->autotype( 0 ) # ->uri( 'http:....' ) # ->proxy( 'http:...' ) # ->function_call(); #

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
