PPI::Token::Data - The actual data in the __DATA__ section of a file
PPI::Token::Data
isa PPI::Token
isa PPI::Element
The PPI::Token::Data class is used to represent the actual data inside
a file's __DATA__ section.
One PPI::Token::Data object is used to represent the entire of the data,
primarily so that it can provide a convenient handle directly to the data.
PPI::Token::Data provides one method in addition to those provided by
our parent the PPI::Token manpage and the PPI::Element manpage classes.
The handle method returns a the IO::String manpage handle that allows you
to do all the normal handle-y things to the contents of the __DATA__
section of the file.
Unlike in perl itself, this means you can also do things like print
new data onto the end of the __DATA__ section, or modify it with
any other process that can accept an the IO::Handle manpage as input or output.
Returns an the IO::String manpage object.
See the support section in the main module.
