PPIx::R...nchReset(3)

💖 PPIx::R...nchReset(3) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the PPIx::R...nchReset page — it's part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and yes the filename is literally abbreviated with dots like that, that's just how Perl docs do. it's a whole mood. let's get into it 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::BranchReset — she represents a branch reset specifier and that's literally her whole job, and she ate 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the vibe in code form:

use PPIx::Regexp::Dumper;
PPIx::Regexp::Dumper->new( 'qr{(?|(foo)|(bar))}smx' )
    ->print();

that's it, that's the whole flex 🎀

---

✨ INHERITANCE ✨

okay so the family tree, and it's giving very linear:

• PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::BranchReset is a PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType. mother is mothering 👑
• and also — PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::BranchReset has no descendants. no kids, no heirs, just her. she's the end of the line fr fr 💀

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what even is this token? she represents the specifier for a branch reset — and that specifier is the ?| that shows up right after the left parenthesis. that's the whole thing. that little ?| is the main character and this class is her dedicated glow-up ✨

---

✨ METHODS ✨

ngl this section is short and I respect it for that: this class provides no public methods beyond the ones it inherits from its superclass. everything you get, you get from mom. periodt 🫶
