In the code below I want both strings in the test_array to match with the regex $test3.
This one works but I wonder if there is a more efficient way of doing it than the one I came up with?
I ask because the regex will be run thousands of times and performance is a factor.
my $test3 = qr<^in directory '/directory/tmp(/\..*'|')$>;
my @test_array = (
"in directory '/directory/tmp'",
"in directory '/directory/tmp/.idBAA5KaaYWfb'"
);
for my $line (@test_array) {
print "TESTING <$line>\n";
if ($line =~ $test3) {
print "MATCHED\n";
}
else {
print "NO MATCH\n";
}
}

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).
