39 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
40 | |
41 | When C<use re 'taint'> is in effect, and a tainted string is the target |
42 | of a regex, the regex memories (or values returned by the m// operator |
e4d48cc9 |
43 | in list context) are tainted. This feature is useful when regex operations |
44 | on tainted data aren't meant to extract safe substrings, but to perform |
45 | other transformations. |
b3eb6a9b |
46 | |
e4d48cc9 |
47 | When C<use re 'eval'> is in effect, a regex is allowed to contain |
2cd61cdb |
48 | C<(?{ ... })> zero-width assertions even if regular expression contains |
ffbc6a93 |
49 | variable interpolation. That is normally disallowed, since it is a |
2cd61cdb |
50 | potential security risk. Note that this pragma is ignored when the regular |
51 | expression is obtained from tainted data, i.e. evaluation is always |
3c4b39be |
52 | disallowed with tainted regular expressions. See L<perlre/(?{ code })>. |
2cd61cdb |
53 | |
ffbc6a93 |
54 | For the purpose of this pragma, interpolation of precompiled regular |
0a92e3a8 |
55 | expressions (i.e., the result of C<qr//>) is I<not> considered variable |
56 | interpolation. Thus: |
2cd61cdb |
57 | |
58 | /foo${pat}bar/ |
59 | |
ffbc6a93 |
60 | I<is> allowed if $pat is a precompiled regular expression, even |
2cd61cdb |
61 | if $pat contains C<(?{ ... })> assertions. |
62 | |
ffbc6a93 |
63 | When C<use re 'debug'> is in effect, perl emits debugging messages when |
2cd61cdb |
64 | compiling and using regular expressions. The output is the same as that |
65 | obtained by running a C<-DDEBUGGING>-enabled perl interpreter with the |
66 | B<-Dr> switch. It may be quite voluminous depending on the complexity |
02ea72ae |
67 | of the match. Using C<debugcolor> instead of C<debug> enables a |
68 | form of output that can be used to get a colorful display on terminals |
69 | that understand termcap color sequences. Set C<$ENV{PERL_RE_TC}> to a |
70 | comma-separated list of C<termcap> properties to use for highlighting |
ffbc6a93 |
71 | strings on/off, pre-point part on/off. |
2cd61cdb |
72 | See L<perldebug/"Debugging regular expressions"> for additional info. |
73 | |
a3621e74 |
74 | Similarly C<use re 'Debug'> produces debugging output, the difference |
75 | being that it allows the fine tuning of what debugging output will be |
be8e71aa |
76 | emitted. Options are divided into three groups, those related to |
77 | compilation, those related to execution and those related to special |
78 | purposes. The options are as follows: |
79 | |
80 | =over 4 |
81 | |
82 | =item Compile related options |
83 | |
84 | =over 4 |
85 | |
86 | =item COMPILE |
87 | |
88 | Turns on all compile related debug options. |
89 | |
90 | =item PARSE |
91 | |
92 | Turns on debug output related to the process of parsing the pattern. |
93 | |
94 | =item OPTIMISE |
95 | |
96 | Enables output related to the optimisation phase of compilation. |
97 | |
98 | =item TRIE_COMPILE |
99 | |
100 | Detailed info about trie compilation. |
101 | |
102 | =item DUMP |
103 | |
104 | Dump the final program out after it is compiled and optimised. |
105 | |
106 | =item OFFSETS |
107 | |
108 | Dump offset information. This can be used to see how regops correlate |
109 | to the pattern. Output format is |
110 | |
111 | NODENUM:POSITION[LENGTH] |
112 | |
113 | Where 1 is the position of the first char in the string. Note that position |
114 | can be 0, or larger than the actual length of the pattern, likewise length |
115 | can be zero. |
116 | |
117 | =back |
118 | |
119 | =item Execute related options |
120 | |
121 | =over 4 |
122 | |
123 | =item EXECUTE |
124 | |
125 | Turns on all execute related debug options. |
126 | |
127 | =item MATCH |
128 | |
129 | Turns on debugging of the main matching loop. |
130 | |
131 | =item TRIE_EXECUTE |
132 | |
133 | Extra debugging of how tries execute. |
134 | |
135 | =item INTUIT |
136 | |
137 | Enable debugging of start point optimisations. |
138 | |
139 | =back |
140 | |
141 | =item Extra debugging options |
142 | |
143 | =over 4 |
144 | |
145 | =item EXTRA |
146 | |
147 | Turns on all "extra" debugging options. |
148 | |
149 | =item TRIE_MORE |
150 | |
151 | Enable enhanced TRIE debugging. Enhances both TRIE_EXECUTE |
152 | and TRIE_COMPILE. |
153 | |
154 | =item OFFSETS_DEBUG |
155 | |
156 | Enable debugging of offsets information. This emits copious |
157 | amounts of trace information and doesnt mesh well with other |
158 | debug options. |
159 | |
160 | Almost definately only useful to people hacking |
161 | on the offsets part of the debug engine. |
162 | |
163 | =back |
164 | |
165 | =item Other useful flags |
166 | |
167 | These are useful shortcuts to save on the typing. |
168 | |
169 | =over 4 |
170 | |
171 | =item ALL |
172 | |
173 | Enable all compile and execute options at once. |
174 | |
175 | =item All |
176 | |
177 | Enable DUMP and all execute options. Equivelent to: |
178 | |
179 | use re 'debug'; |
180 | |
181 | =item MORE |
182 | |
183 | =item More |
184 | |
185 | Enable TRIE_MORE and all execute compile and execute options. |
186 | |
187 | =back 4 |
188 | |
189 | =back 4 |
a3621e74 |
190 | |
191 | The directive C<use re 'debug'> and its equivalents are I<not> lexically |
192 | scoped, as the other directives are. They have both compile-time and run-time |
193 | effects. |
