15 "PPI::Structure::Unknown" is class for braces whose type is unknown, or
16 temporarily unknown.
17
18 It primarily exists temporarily inside the lexer. Although some types
19 of braces can be determined immediately at opening, there are a number
20 of different brace types that can only be correctly identified after
21 the braces are closed.
22
23 A structure is typed as unknown during this period it is indeterminate.
24
25 A "PPI::Structure::Unknown" object should not ever make it out of the
26 lexer without being converted to it's final type. Any time you
27 encounter this class in a PDOM tree it should be considered a bug and
28 reported accordingly.
29
31 "PPI::Structure::Unknown" has no methods beyond those provided by the
32 standard PPI::Structure, PPI::Node and PPI::Element methods.

35 See the support section in the main module.
