=head1 NAME
re - Perl pragma to alter regular expression behaviour
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use re 'taint';
($x) = ($^X =~ /^(.*)$/s); # $x is tainted here
$pat = '(?{ $foo = 1 })';
use re 'eval';
/foo${pat}bar/; # won't fail (when not under -T switch)
{
no re 'taint'; # the default
($x) = ($^X =~ /^(.*)$/s); # $x is not tainted here
no re 'eval'; # the default
/foo${pat}bar/; # disallowed (with or without -T switch)
}
use re 'debug'; # output debugging info during
/^(.*)$/s; # compile and run time
use re 'debugcolor'; # same as 'debug', but with colored output
...
use re qw(Debug All); # Finer tuned debugging options.
use re qw(Debug More);
no re qw(Debug ALL); # Turn of all re debugging in this scope
use re qw(is_regexp regexp_pattern); # import utility functions
my ($pat,$mods)=regexp_pattern(qr/foo/i);
if (is_regexp($obj)) {
print "Got regexp: ",
scalar regexp_pattern($obj); # just as perl would stringify it
} # but no hassle with blessed re's.
(We use $^X in these examples because it's tainted by default.)
=head1 DESCRIPTION
=head2 'taint' mode
When C<use re 'taint'> is in effect, and a tainted string is the target
of a regex, the regex memories (or values returned by the m// operator
in list context) are tainted. This feature is useful when regex operations
on tainted data aren't meant to extract safe substrings, but to perform
other transformations.
=head2 'eval' mode
When C<use re 'eval'> is in effect, a regex is allowed to contain
C<(?{ ... })> zero-width assertions even if regular expression contains
variable interpolation. That is normally disallowed, since it is a
potential security risk. Note that this pragma is ignored when the regular
expression is obtained from tainted data, i.e. evaluation is always
disallowed with tainted regular expressions. See L<perlre/(?{ code })>.
For the purpose of this pragma, interpolation of precompiled regular
expressions (i.e., the result of C<qr//>) is I<not> considered variable
interpolation. Thus:
/foo${pat}bar/
I<is> allowed if $pat is a precompiled regular expression, even
if $pat contains C<(?{ ... })> assertions.
=head2 'debug' mode
When C<use re 'debug'> is in effect, perl emits debugging messages when
compiling and using regular expressions. The output is the same as that
obtained by running a C<-DDEBUGGING>-enabled perl interpreter with the
B<-Dr> switch. It may be quite voluminous depending on the complexity
of the match. Using C<debugcolor> instead of C<debug> enables a
form of output that can be used to get a colorful display on terminals
that understand termcap color sequences. Set C<$ENV{PERL_RE_TC}> to a
comma-separated list of C<termcap> properties to use for highlighting
strings on/off, pre-point part on/off.
See L<perldebug/"Debugging regular expressions"> for additional info.
As of 5.9.5 the directive C<use re 'debug'> and its equivalents are
lexically scoped, as the other directives are. However they have both
compile-time and run-time effects.
See L<perlmodlib/Pragmatic Modules>.
=head2 'Debug' mode
Similarly C<use re 'Debug'> produces debugging output, the difference
being that it allows the fine tuning of what debugging output will be
emitted. Options are divided into three groups, those related to
compilation, those related to execution and those related to special
purposes. The options are as follows:
=over 4
=item Compile related options
=over 4
=item COMPILE
Turns on all compile related debug options.
=item PARSE
Turns on debug output related to the process of parsing the pattern.
=item OPTIMISE
Enables output related to the optimisation phase of compilation.
=item TRIEC
Detailed info about trie compilation.
=item DUMP
Dump the final program out after it is compiled and optimised.
=back
=item Execute related options
=over 4
=item EXECUTE
Turns on all execute related debug options.
=item MATCH
Turns on debugging of the main matching loop.
=item TRIEE
Extra debugging of how tries execute.
=item INTUIT
Enable debugging of start point optimisations.
=back
=item Extra debugging options
=over 4
=item EXTRA
Turns on all "extra" debugging options.
=item BUFFERS
Enable debugging the capture buffer storage during match. Warning,
this can potentially produce extremely large output.
=item TRIEM
Enable enhanced TRIE debugging. Enhances both TRIEE
and TRIEC.
=item STATE
Enable debugging of states in the engine.
=item STACK
Enable debugging of the recursion stack in the engine. Enabling
or disabling this option automatically does the same for debugging
states as well. This output from this can be quite large.
=item OPTIMISEM
Enable enhanced optimisation debugging and start point optimisations.
Probably not useful except when debugging the regex engine itself.
=item OFFSETS
Dump offset information. This can be used to see how regops correlate
to the pattern. Output format is
NODENUM:POSITION[LENGTH]
Where 1 is the position of the first char in the string. Note that position
can be 0, or larger than the actual length of the pattern, likewise length
can be zero.
=item OFFSETSDBG
Enable debugging of offsets information. This emits copious
amounts of trace information and doesn't mesh well with other
debug options.
Almost definitely only useful to people hacking
on the offsets part of the debug engine.
=back
=item Other useful flags
These are useful shortcuts to save on the typing.
=over 4
=item ALL
Enable all options at once except OFFSETS, OFFSETSDBG and BUFFERS
=item All
Enable DUMP and all execute options. Equivalent to:
use re 'debug';
=item MORE
=item More
Enable TRIEM and all execute compile and execute options.
=back
=back
As of 5.9.5 the directive C<use re 'debug'> and its equivalents are
lexically scoped, as the other directives are. However they have both
compile-time and run-time effects.
=head2 Exportable Functions
As of perl 5.9.5 're' debug contains a number of utility functions that
may be optionally exported into the caller's namespace. They are listed
below.
=over 4
=item is_regexp($ref)
Returns true if the argument is a compiled regular expression as returned
by C<qr//>, false if it is not.
This function will not be confused by overloading or blessing. In
internals terms, this extracts the regexp pointer out of the
PERL_MAGIC_qr structure so it it cannot be fooled.
=item regexp_pattern($ref)
If the argument is a compiled regular expression as returned by C<qr//>,
then this function returns the pattern.
In list context it returns a two element list, the first element
containing the pattern and the second containing the modifiers used when
the pattern was compiled.
my ($pat, $mods) = regexp_pattern($ref);
In scalar context it returns the same as perl would when strigifying a raw
C<qr//> with the same pattern inside. If the argument is not a compiled
reference then this routine returns false but defined in scalar context,
and the empty list in list context. Thus the following
if (regexp_pattern($ref) eq '(?i-xsm:foo)')
will be warning free regardless of what $ref actually is.
Like C<is_regexp> this function will not be confused by overloading
or blessing of the object.
=item regmust($ref)
If the argument is a compiled regular expression as returned by C<qr//>,
then this function returns what the optimiser consiers to be the longest
anchored fixed string and longest floating fixed string in the pattern.
A I<fixed string> is defined as being a substring that must appear for the
pattern to match. An I<anchored fixed string> is a fixed string that must
appear at a particular offset from the beginning of the match. A I<floating
fixed string> is defined as a fixed string that can appear at any point in
a range of positions relative to the start of the match. For example,
my $qr = qr/here .* there/x;
my ($anchored, $floating) = regmust($qr);
print "anchored:'$anchored'\nfloating:'$floating'\n";
results in
anchored:'here'
floating:'there'
Because the C<here> is before the C<.*> in the pattern, its position
can be determined exactly. That's not true, however, for the C<there>;
it could appear at any point after where the anchored string appeared.
Perl uses both for its optimisations, prefering the longer, or, if they are
equal, the floating.
B<NOTE:> This may not necessarily be the definitive longest anchored and
floating string. This will be what the optimiser of the Perl that you
are using thinks is the longest. If you believe that the result is wrong
please report it via the L<perlbug> utility.
=item regname($name,$all)
Returns the contents of a named buffer of the last successful match. If
$all is true, then returns an array ref containing one entry per buffer,
otherwise returns the first defined buffer.
=item regnames($all)
Returns a list of all of the named buffers defined in the last successful
match. If $all is true, then it returns all names defined, if not it returns
only names which were involved in the match.
=item regnames_count()
Returns the number of distinct names defined in the pattern used
for the last successful match.
B<Note:> this result is always the actual number of distinct
named buffers defined, it may not actually match that which is
returned by C<regnames()> and related routines when those routines
have not been called with the $all parameter set.
