NAME

SYNOPSIS

PPIx::Regexp::Dumper->new( 'qr{(?[ \w - [fox] ])}smx' )
->print();
INHERITANCE
"PPIx::Regexp::Structure::RegexSet" is a PPIx::Regexp::Structure.
"PPIx::Regexp::Structure::RegexSet" has no descendants.
RESTRICTION
When running under Perl 5.6, the extended white space characters are
not recognized as white space.
DESCRIPTION
This class represents a regex character set.
These were introduced in Perl 5.17.8, and documented as experimental
and subject to change. If changes introduced in Perl result in changes
in the way "PPIx::Regexp" parses the regular expression, "PPIx::Regexp"
will track the change, even if they are incompatible with the previous
parse. If this functionality is retracted and the syntax used for
something else, "PPIx::Regexp" will forget completely about regex
character sets.
At some point, the documentation started calling these "Extended
Bracketed Character Classes", and documenting them in perlrecharclass.
METHODS
This class supports no public methods over and above those supported by
the superclasses.
SUPPORT
