Regexp::DefaultFlags - Set default flags on regular expressions
This document describes version 0.01 of Regexp::DefaultFlags released September 28, 2004.
use Regexp::DefaultFlags; # Match /ab[c-z]d/, but lay the pattern out more readably... $str =~ / a b [c-z] # Not fussy on the third letter d # But fussy again on the fourth /;
When this module is use'd, it causes regexes in the current namespace to act as if the /xms flags had been applied to them.
use
/xms
See perlre for more details and caveats on these flags.
If an argument is passed to the use statement, the module uses the flags specified in that argument instead of /xms. The replacement flags can be specified in any of the following ways:
use Regexp::DefaultFlags qw( /x /i /m ); use Regexp::DefaultFlags qw( /xim ); use Regexp::DefaultFlags qw( xim );
