PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Regexp - Regexp constructor quote-like operator
PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Regexp
isa PPI::Token::QuoteLike
isa PPI::Token
isa PPI::Element
A PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Regexp
object represents the quote-like operator used to construct anonymous Regexp objects, as follows.
# Create a Regexp object for a module filename
my $module = qr/\.pm$/;
The following methods are provided by this class, beyond those provided by the parent PPI::Token::QuoteLike, PPI::Token and PPI::Element classes.
The get_match_string
method returns the portion of the string that will be compiled into the match portion of the regexp.
The get_substitute_string
method always returns undef
, since the qr{}
construction provides no substitution string. This method is provided for orthogonality with PPI::Token::Regexp
.
The get_modifiers
method returns the modifiers that will be compiled into the regexp.
The get_delimiters
method returns the delimiters of the string as an array. The first and only element is the delimiters of the string to be compiled into a match string.
See the support section in the main module.
