DESCRIPTION

This module will lexically replace a variable name.

METHODS

new()
Constructor. Generally shouldn't be called with any arguments.
rename( ppi => PPI::Document $ppi, line => Int, column => Int, replacement => Str ) =item rename( code => Str $code, line => Int, column => Int, replacement => Str )
Accepts either a "PPI::Document" to process or a string containing the code (which will be converted into a "PPI::Document") to process. Renames the variable found at line, column with that supplied in the "replacement" parameter and returns a "PPIx::EditorTools::ReturnObject" with the new code available via the "ppi" or "code" accessors, as a "PPI::Document" or "string", respectively. The "PPI::Token" found at line, column is available via the "element" accessor.

Croaks with a ``no token'' exception if no token is found at the location. Croaks with a ``no declaration'' exception if unable to find the declaration.

SEE ALSO

This class inherits from "PPIx::EditorTools". Also see App::EditorTools, Padre, and PPI.
