B: Certain "dangerous" stashes are not scanned for subroutines: the list of such stashes can be found in C<@B::Utils::bad_stashes>. Feel free to examine and/or modify this to suit your needs. The intention is that a simple program which uses no modules other than C and C would show no addition symbols. This does B return the details of ops in anonymous subroutines compiled at compile time. For instance, given $a = sub { ... }; the subroutine will not appear in the hash. This is just as well, since they're anonymous...

This is a very simple op tree walker with more expected semantics. All the C functions set C<$B::Utils::file>, C<$B::Utils::line>, and C<$B::Utils::sub> to the appropriate values of file, line number, and sub name in the program being examined. =cut $B::Utils::file = '__none__'; $B::Utils::line = 0; $B::Utils::sub = undef; sub walkoptree_simple { $B::Utils::file = '__none__'; $B::Utils::line = 0; _walkoptree_simple( {}, @_ ); return _TRUE; } sub _walkoptree_simple { my ( $visited, $op, $callback, $data ) = @_; return if $visited->{$$op}++; if ( ref $op and $op->isa("B::COP") ) { $B::Utils::file = $op->file; $B::Utils::line = $op->line; } $callback->( $op, $data ); return if $op->isa('B::NULL'); if ( $op->flags & OPf_KIDS ) { # for (my $kid = $op->first; $$kid; $kid = $kid->sibling) { # _walkoptree_simple( $visited, $kid, $callback, $data ); # } _walkoptree_simple( $visited, $_, $callback, $data ) for $op->kids; } if ( $op->isa('B::PMOP') ) { my $maybe_root = $op->pmreplroot; if (ref($maybe_root) and $maybe_root->isa("B::OP")) { # It really is the root of the replacement, not something # else stored here for lack of space elsewhere _walkoptree_simple( $visited, $maybe_root, $callback, $data ); } } return; } =item C This is much the same as C, but will only call the callback if the C returns true. The C is passed the op in question as a parameter; the C function is fantastic for building your own filters. =cut sub walkoptree_filtered { $B::Utils::file = '__none__'; $B::Utils::line = 0; _walkoptree_filtered( {}, @_ );; return _TRUE; } sub _walkoptree_filtered { my ( $visited, $op, $filter, $callback, $data ) = @_; if ( $op->isa("B::COP") ) { $B::Utils::file = $op->file; $B::Utils::line = $op->line; } $callback->( $op, $data ) if $filter->($op); if ( ref $op and $$op and $op->flags & OPf_KIDS ) { my $kid = $op->first; while ( ref $kid and $$kid ) { _walkoptree_filtered( $visited, $kid, $filter, $callback, $data ); $kid = $kid->sibling; } } return _TRUE; } =item C This combines C with C and C to examine every op in the program. C<$B::Utils::sub> is set to the subroutine name if you're in a subroutine, C<__MAIN__> if you're in the main program and C<__ANON__> if you're in an anonymous subroutine. =cut sub walkallops_simple { $B::Utils::sub = undef; &_walkallops_simple; return _TRUE; } sub _walkallops_simple { my ( $callback, $data ) = @_; _init_sub_cache(); for my $sub_name (sort keys %roots) { $B::Utils::sub = $sub_name; my $root = $roots{$sub_name}; walkoptree_simple( $root, $callback, $data ); } $B::Utils::sub = "__ANON__"; walkoptree_simple( $_->{root}, $callback, $data ) for @anon_subs; return _TRUE; } =item C Same as above, but filtered. =cut sub walkallops_filtered { $B::Utils::sub = undef; &_walkallops_filtered; return _TRUE; } sub _walkallops_filtered { my ( $filter, $callback, $data ) = @_; _init_sub_cache(); walkoptree_filtered( $_, $filter, $callback, $data ) for values %roots; $B::Utils::sub = "__ANON__"; walkoptree_filtered( $_->{root}, $filter, $callback, $data ) for @anon_subs; return _TRUE; } =item C Returns the ops which meet the given conditions. The conditions should be specified like this: @barewords = opgrep( { name => "const", private => OPpCONST_BARE }, @ops ); where the first argument to C is the condition to be matched against the op structure. We'll henceforth refer to it as an op-pattern. You can specify alternation by giving an arrayref of values: @svs = opgrep ( { name => ["padsv", "gvsv"] }, @ops) And you can specify inversion by making the first element of the arrayref a "!". (Hint: if you want to say "anything", say "not nothing": C<["!"]>) You may also specify the conditions to be matched in nearby ops as nested patterns. walkallops_filtered( sub { opgrep( {name => "exec", next => { name => "nextstate", sibling => { name => [qw(! exit warn die)] } } }, @_)}, sub { carp("Statement unlikely to be reached"); carp("\t(Maybe you meant system() when you said exec()?)\n"); } ) Get that? Here are the things that can be tested in this way: name targ type seq flags private pmflags pmpermflags first other last sibling next pmreplroot pmreplstart pmnext Additionally, you can use the C keyword with an array reference to match the result of a call to C<$op-Ekids()>. An example use is given in the documentation for C below. For debugging, you can have many properties of an op that is currently being matched against a given condition dumped to STDERR by specifying C 1> in the condition's hash reference. If you match a complex condition against an op tree, you may want to extract a specific piece of information from the tree if the condition matches. This normally entails manually walking the tree a second time down to the op you wish to extract, investigate or modify. Since this is tedious duplication of code and information, you can specify a special property in the pattern of the op you wish to extract to capture the sub-op of interest. Example: my ($result) = opgrep( { name => "exec", next => { name => "nextstate", sibling => { name => [qw(! exit warn die)] capture => "notreached", }, } }, $root_op ); if ($result) { my $name = $result->{notreached}->name; # result is *not* the root op carp("Statement unlikely to be reached (op name: $name)"); carp("\t(Maybe you meant system() when you said exec()?)\n"); } While the above is a terribly contrived example, consider the win for a deeply nested pattern or worse yet, a pattern with many disjunctions. If a C property is found anywhere in the op pattern, C returns an unblessed hash reference on success instead of the tested op. You can tell them apart using L's C. That hash reference contains all captured ops plus the tested root up as the hash entry C<$result-E{op}>. Note that you cannot use this feature with C since that function was specifically documented to pass the tested op itself to the callback. You cannot capture disjunctions, but that doesn't really make sense anyway. =item C Same as above, except that you don't have to chain the conditions yourself. If you pass an array-ref, opgrep will chain the conditions for you using C. The conditions can either be strings (taken as op-names), or hash-refs, with the same testable conditions as given above. =cut sub opgrep { return unless defined wantarray; my $conds_ref = shift; $conds_ref = _opgrep_helper($conds_ref) if 'ARRAY' eq ref $conds_ref; my @grep_ops; # Check whether we're dealing with a disjunction of patterns: my @conditions = exists($conds_ref->{disjunction}) ? @{$conds_ref->{disjunction}} : ($conds_ref); OP: for my $op (@_) { next unless ref $op and $$op; # only one condition by default, but if we have a disjunction, there will # be several CONDITION: foreach my $condition (@conditions) { # nested disjunctions? naughty user! # $foo or ($bar or $baz) is $foo or $bar or $baz! # ==> flatten if (exists($condition->{disjunction})) { push @conditions, @{$condition->{disjunction}}; next CONDITION; } # structure to hold captured information my $capture = {}; # Debugging aid if (exists $condition->{'dump'}) { ($op->can($_) or next) and warn "$_: " . $op->$_ .

Example: my $sub_structure = { name => 'helem', first => { name => 'rv2hv', }, 'last' => { name => 'const', }, }; my @ops = opgrep( { name => 'leavesub', first => { name => 'lineseq', kids => [, { name => 'nextstate', }, op_or( { name => 'return', first => { name => 'pushmark' }, last => $sub_structure, }, $sub_structure, ), ], }, }, $op_obj ); This example matches the code in a typical simplest-possible accessor method (albeit not down to the last bit): sub get_foo { $_[0]->{foo} } But by adding an alternation we can also match optional op layers. In this case, we optionally match a return statement, so the following implementation is also recognized: sub get_foo { return $_[0]->{foo} } Essentially, this is syntactic sugar for the following structure recognized by C: { disjunction => [@conditions] } =cut sub op_or { my @conditions = @_; return({ disjunction => [@conditions] }); } # TODO # sub op_pattern_match { # my $op = shift; # my $pattern = shift; # # my $ret = {}; # # # return $ret; # } =item C =item C Warn and die, respectively, from the perspective of the position of the op in the program.
