Re^3: regex compilation

[haukex]

Have you printed the two values you get?

The output is above in the end block.

I'm pretty sure that by "the two values", Corion meant $regex1 and $regex2.

By the way, the only quoting construct that doesn't interpolate at all is here docs with a single-quoted delimiter:

chomp( my $regex2 = <<'ENDREGEX' );
(?:(?|(?:\")([^\\\"]*(?:\\.[^\\\"]*)*)(?:\")))
ENDREGEX
print $regex2, "\n";

my ($match2) = q|"hubba \"bubba\""| =~ /$regex2/;
print $match2, "\n";

__END__

(?:(?|(?:\")([^\\\"]*(?:\\.[^\\\"]*)*)(?:\")))
hubba \"bubba\"
