Re^2: Value of $_ inside a regex (?{ code })

[Anonymous Monk]

Aha, so we're talking about a specific construct, the http://perldoc.perl.org/perlre.html#%28?{-code-}%29, which says

inside a (?{...}) block, $_ refers to the string the regular expression is matching against. You can also use pos() to know what is the current position of matching within this string.

so that part is documented; good to know.

I see this statement in the documentation of  (?{...}) in perlre back to 5.8.9. But nothing like it for  (??{...}) Interesting.
