14 "PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType" is a PPIx::Regexp::Token.
15
16 "PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType" is the parent of
17 PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::Assertion,
18 PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::BranchReset,
19 PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::Code,
20 PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::Modifier,
21 PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::NamedCapture,
22 PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::Subexpression and
23 PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::Switch.

26 This class represents any of the magic sequences of characters that can
27 follow an open parenthesis. This particular class is intended to be
28 abstract.
29
31 This class provides no public methods beyond those provided by its
32 superclass.
33
34 __defining_string
35 my $string = $class->__defining_string();
36
37 This method is private to the "PPIx-Regexp" package, and is documented
38 for the author's benefit only. It may be changed or revoked without
39 notice.
40
41 This method returns an array of strings that define the specific group
42 type. These strings will normally start with '?'.
43
44 Optionally, the first returned item may be a hash reference. The only
45 supported key is "{suffix}", which is a string to be suffixed to each
46 of the regular expressions made by "__make_group_type_matcher()" out of
47 the defining strings, inside a "(?= ... )", so that it is not included
48 in the match.
49
50 This method must be overridden, unless "__make_group_type_matcher()"
51 is.
52
53 __make_group_type_matcher
54 my $hash_ref = $class->__make_group_type_matcher();
55
56 This method is private to the "PPIx-Regexp" package, and is documented
57 for the author's benefit only. It may be changed or revoked without
58 notice.
59
60 This method returns a reference to a hash. The keys are regexp
61 delimiter characters which appear in the defining strings for the group
62 type. For each key, the value is a reference to an array of "Regexp"
63 objects, properly escaped for the key character. Key '' provides the
64 regular expressions to be used if the regexp delimiter does not appear
65 in any of the defining strings.
66
67 If this method is overridden by the subclass, method
68 "__defining_string()" need not be, unless the overridden
69 "__make_group_type_matcher()" calls "__defining_string()".
70
71 __match_setup
72 $class->__match_setup( $tokenizer );
73
74 This method is private to the "PPIx-Regexp" package, and is documented
75 for the author's benefit only. It may be changed or revoked without
76 notice.
77
78 This method performs whatever setup is needed once it is determined
79 that the given group type has been detected. This method is called
80 only if the class matched at the current position in the string being
81 parsed. It must perform whatever extra setup is needed for the match.
82 It returns nothing.
83
84 This method need not be overridden. The default does nothing.
85
87 Support is by the author. Please file bug reports at
88 <http://rt.cpan.org>, or in electronic mail to the author.
