SYNOPSIS

11        PPIx::Regexp::Dumper->new( 'qr{foo}smx' )
12            ->print();

INHERITANCE

DESCRIPTION

20       This token represents the delimiters of the regular expression. Since
21       the tokenizer has to figure out where these are anyway, this class is
22       used to give the lexer a hint about what is going on.
23

METHODS

25       This class provides no public methods beyond those provided by its
26       superclass.
27
28   perl_version_introduced
29       Experimentation with weird delimiters shows that they did not actually
30       work until Perl 5.8.3, so we return '5.008003' for such delimiters.
31
32   perl_version_removed
33       Perl 5.29.0 made fatal the use of non-standalone graphemes as regular
34       expression delimiters. Because non-characters and permanently
35       unassigned code points are still allowed per perldeprecation, I take
36       this to mean characters that match "/\p{Mark}/" (i.e. combining
37       diacritical marks).  But this regular expression does not compile under
38       Perl 5.6.
39
40       So:
41
42       This method returns '5.029' for such delimiters provided the requisite
43       regular expression compiles. Otherwise it return "undef".
