( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

The easiest way would be not to go back: Just search for ipconfig and sub in parallel. If you find a sub, just store the related function-name (as this is the function you are currently in). And if you find an ipconfig, just take that name.

update begin You could also do a two-pass-reading: in the first pass you would read all functions that are defined in your file, and store their name and the line where they start. In the second pass you would search for your keyword, check the line where it occurs and use this to determine the function name. update end

You will of course still need to handle the case of your keywords occuring in strings, comments and so on...

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.
