PPIx::R...e::Code(3)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, meet PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::Code (that's section 3 of the manual, 💅) — it's the class that represents one of the embedded code indicators. that's the whole job. that's the vibe. 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

like, here's how you'd actually use it:

use PPIx::Regexp::Dumper;
PPIx::Regexp::Dumper->new( 'qr{(?{print "hello world!\n")}smx' )
    ->print();

no cap, that's it. ✨

---

🌸 INHERITANCE 🌸

• PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::Code is a PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType. it's giving "child of a legend". 👑
• and PPIx::Regexp::Token::GroupType::Code has no descendants. it's the end of the line, the final girl, main character energy with nobody after her. 😭

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so this class represents one of the embedded code indicators — and those indicators are either '?' or '??' — living inside the zero-width assertion that looks like this:

(?{ print "Hello, world!\n" })

or, alternatively, inside the old-style deferred expression syntax, which is literally this:

my $foo;
$foo = qr{ foo (??{ $foo }) }smx;

so yeah. it's the little marker that says "code goes here". iconic behavior fr fr. 🫶

---

🎀 METHODS 🎀

lowkey the shortest section ever: this class provides no public methods beyond those provided by its superclass. that's the whole tea. nothing extra. she's a minimalist. 💅
