Break it down:

  1. grep( expression, @{ ... } )
  2. The expression  s#$#$RegObj->{DELIM}#

    start with 's', so it is a substitution.

    The #s are delimiters so the two sides are: $ and $RegObj->{DELIM}

    So it is substituting the module defined delimiter for any '$'s every end of line.

  3. The array: @{ $RegObj->{MEMBERS}= [ @{$RegObj->{SUBKEYS}} ] }

    Contains an assignment: $RegObj->{MEMBERS}= [ @{$RegObj->{SUBKEYS}} ]

    It copies the array of subkeys : @{ $RegObj->{SUBKEYS} } into an anonymous array [ ... ]

    And assigns its reference to $RegObj->{MEMBERS} = ...

    Then it dereferences that to supply the subkeys to grep.

Thus, that one line is equivalent to:

my @temp = @{ $RegObj->{SUBKEYS} }; $RegObj->{MEMBERS} = \@temp; grep s[$][$RegObj->{DELIM}], @temp;

Without the need for @temp; but less efficient.


With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
