=head1 NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::ControlStructures::ProhibitLabelsWithSpecialBlockNames - Don't use labels that are the same as the special block names.


=head1 AFFILIATION

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


=head1 DESCRIPTION

When using one of the special Perl blocks C<BEGIN>, C<END>, C<CHECK>,
C<INIT>, and C<UNITCHECK>, it is easy to mistakenly add a colon to the
end of the block name.  E.g.:

    # a BEGIN block that gets executed at compile time.
    BEGIN { <...code...> }

    # an ordinary labeled block that gets executed at run time.
    BEGIN: { <...code...> }

The labels "BEGIN:", "END:", etc. are probably errors.  This policy
prohibits the special Perl block names from being used as labels.


=head1 CONFIGURATION

This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
