NAME
    Regexp::Parser - base class for parsing regexes

SYNOPSIS
    See examples in "USAGE".

WARNING
    This is version 0.021. The documentation is (still) incomplete. It may
    be a little jumbled or hard to understand. If you find a problem, please
    let me know.

    Documentation has been added and moved around. See
    Regexp::Parser::Objects for documentation about nodes and the objects
    that represent them. See Regexp::Parser::Handlers for information about
    sub-classing this module.

DESCRIPTION
    This module parses regular expressions (regexes). Its default "grammar"
    is Perl 5.8.4's regex set. Grammar is quoted because the module does not
    so much define a grammar as let each matched node state what it expects
    to match next, but there is not currently a way of extracting a complete
    grammar. This may change in future versions.

    This module is designed as a replacement (though not drop-in) for my old
    YAPE::Regex modules.

USAGE
  Creating an Instance
    To use this module as is, load it, and create an instance:

      use Regexp::Parser;
      my $parser = Regexp::Parser->new;

  Setting a Regex
    To have the parser work on a specific regex, you can do use any of the
    following methods:

    $parser = Regexp::Parser->new($regex)
        You can send the regex to be parsed as the argument to the
        constructor.

    $parser->regex($regex)
        Clears the parser's memory and sets $regex as the regex to be
        parsed.

    These two approaches do an initial pass over the regex to make sure it
    is well-formed -- any warnings or errors will be determined during this
    initial pass.

   Fatal Errors
    If there is a compilation-stopping error, $parser->errmsg will return
    that error message, and $parser->errnum will return the numerical value
    of the message. If you use new() the Regexp::Parser object will still be
    returned, but if you use regex() then it will return false.

      if (! $parser->regex($rx)) {
        my $errmsg = $parser->errmsg;
        my $errnum = $parser->errnum;
        # ...
      }

    If you want to see if an error is a particular error, see "ERROR
    HANDLING".

  Inspecting the Parsing
    To intercept each node as it is parsed, use the next() method:

      while (my $node = $parser->next) {
        # $node is a Regexp::Parser::* object
      }

    When the regex is finished being parsed, next() returns false, and will
    return false if called again.

  Building the Tree
    If you don't care to intercept the building of the tree, you can use the
    parse() method to explicitly build it:

      $parser->parse;

    This is not necessary, though, because the following methods will invoke
    parse() if the tree has not been made yet.

  Setting and Parsing Together
    You can also use parse() instead of regex() to set the regex and create
    the tree in one step:

      my $ok = $parser->parse($new_regex);

    Again, $ok will be false if a fatal error was raised in the inital scan
    of the regex.

  Getting the Tree
    You can access the root of the tree with the root() method:

      my $root = $parser->root;

    It will be an array reference of objects.

  Getting the OPEN Count
    You can access the number capture groups with the nparen() method:

      my $captgroups = $parser->nparen;

  Getting All Captures
    You can access all the capture groups with the captures() method:

      my $all_captures = $parser->captures();

    If you want to access a specific capture group, pass its numerical
    value:

      my $capture_2 = $parser->captures(2);

  Walking the Tree
    To walk over the created tree, create an iterator with walker():

      my $iter = $parser->walker;

    This will produce an iterator that will traverse the entire parse tree,
    to any depth. To restrict the depth to which it reaches, pass walker()
    an argument:

      my $iter = $parser->walker(0);  # top-level
      my $iter = $parser->walker(1);  # top- and second-level
      my $iter = $parser->walker(2);  # top- through third-level

    The iterator returned is a function reference. When called in scalar
    context, it returns the next node:

      while (my $node = $iter->()) {
        # $node is a Regexp::Parser::* object
      }

    In list context, it returns the next node and its depth:

      while (my ($node, $depth) = $iter->()) {
        # $node is a Regexp::Parser::* object
        # $depth = 0, 1, 2...
      }

    If passed the argument "-depth", it returns the depth to which it will
    look:

      while (my ($node, $depth) = $iter->()) {
        if ($depth == $iter->(-depth)) {
          # this is as deep as it will look
        }
      }

    If passed any other argument, it will warn that it is ignoring it.

    The iterator will return undef when it has reached the end of the tree;
    it will then reset itself, and will start from the beginning the next
    time it is called.

  Viewing the Regex
    You can get the regex back from the parser with the visual() method:

      my $rx = $parser->visual;

    This will not return a Regexp object, but the regex; it might be
    slightly different from the regex you passed it, but it will not operate
    differently.

    The string representation is built by calling the visual() method of
    each node in the tree.

  Using the Regex
    You can use the qr() method to get back a Regexp object:

      my $real_rx = $parser->qr;

    The regex is formed by calling the qr() method of each node in the tree,
    which may be different from the visual() method; specifically, in the
    case of a sub-class that adds a handler, the qr() method is used to
    produce the Perl regex implementation of the new node.

  Named Character Support
    Perl's regex engine doesn't see \N{NAME} escapes -- they get
    interpolated by Perl first. In fact, if one slipped through:

      my $rx = '\N{LATIN CAPITAL LETTER R}';
      my $qr = qr/$rx/;

    Perl's regex interprets the '\N' as a needlessly backslashed 'N'. My
    module parses them and handles them properly. The nchar() method takes a
    named character's name, and returns the actual character:

      my $R = $parser->nchar("LATIN CAPITAL LETTER R");

    This means you must have the charnames pragma installed, but since this
    module requires Perl 5.6 or better, I don't expect that to be a problem.

  Using the Tree
    If you want to work with the parse tree independently, use the root()
    method to get it. From there, you're on your own. You'll probably want
    to make a recursive function that takes an object (or a reference to an
    array of them) and does something to them (and their children).

ERROR HANDLING
  Determining Error
    Use the errmsg() and errnum() methods to get the error information.

    To see if an error is a particular one, use the error_is() method:

      if ($parser->error_is($parser->RPe_BCURLY)) {
        # there was a {n,m} quantifier with n > m
      }

  Standard Warnings and Errors
    Here are the standard warning and error messages. Their values are all
    negative; positive values are left available for extensions. Please
    refer to perldiag for the explanations of the messages.

    These are all constants in the Regexp::Parser package, which means you
    can access them as though they were methods. They return two values,
    their numeric value, and a format string for use with sprintf().

      # for when you have a zero-width chunk
      # with a boundless quantifier on it
      my ($num, $fmt) = $parser->RPe_NULNUL;

EXTENSIONS
    Here are some ideas for extensions (sub-classes) for this module. Some
    of them may be absorbed into the core functionality of Regexp::Parser in
    the future. Module names are merely the author's suggestions.

    Regexp::WordBounds
        Adds handlers for "<" and ">" anchors, which match at the beginning
        and end of a "word", respectively. "//" is equivalent to "/(?<=\w)(?!\w)/". (So
        that's the object's qr() method for you right there!)

    Regexp::MinLength
        Implements a min_length() method for all objects that determines the
        minimum length of a string that would be matched by the regex;
        provides a front-end method for the parser.

    Regexp::QuantAttr
        Removes quantifiers as objects, and makes 'min' and 'max' attributes
        of other objects themselves.

    Regexp::Explain (pending, Jeff Pinyan)
        Produces a human-readable explanation of the execution of a regex.
        Will be able to produce HTML output that color-codes the elements of
        the regex according to a style-sheet (syntax highlighting).

    Regexp::Reverse (difficulty rating: ****)
        Reverses a regex so it matches backwards. Ex.: "/\s+$/" becomes
        "/^\n?\s+/", which perhaps gets optimized to "/^\s+/". The
        difficulty rating is so high because of cases like "/(\d+)(\w+)/"
        which, when reversed, *can* match differently.

          "100years" =~ /(\d+)(\w+)/;  # $1 = 100, $2 = years
          "sraey001" =~ /(\w+)(\d+)/;  # $1 = sraey00, $2 = 1

        This means character classes should store a hash of what characters
        they represent, as well as the macros "\w", "\d", etc. Then this
        example would be reversed into something like "/(\w+(? /f(?:o(?:o|rt)|ather)/

          # char classes
          /[\w\d][a-zaeiou]/ => /[\w][a-z]/

          # redundancy
          /^\n?\s+/          => /^\s+/
          /[\w]/             => /\w/

        There are other possibilities as well.

HISTORY
  0.021 -- July 3, 2004
    *anyof_class* Changed
        If an *anyof_class* element is a Unicode property or a Perl class
        (like "\w" or "\S"), the object's "data" field points to the
        underlying object type (*prop*, *alnum*, etc.). If the element is a
        POSIX class, the "data" field is the string "POSIX". POSIX classes
        don't exist in a regex outside of a character class, so I'm a little
        wary of making them objects in their own right, even if it would
        create a better sense of uniformity.

    Documentation
        Fixed some poor wording, and documented the problem with using
        SUPER:: inside MyClass::__object__.

    Bug Fixes
        Character classes weren't closing properly in the tree. Fixed.

        Standard escapes ("\a", "\e", etc.) were being returned as *exact*
        nodes instead of *anyof_char* nodes when inside character classes.
        Fixed. (Mike Lambert)

        Non-grouping parentheses weren't being parsed properly. Fixed. (Mike
        Lambert)

        Flags weren't being turned off. Fixed.

  0.02 -- July 1, 2004
    Better Abstracting
        The object() method calls force_object(). force_object() creates an
        object no matter what pass the parser is making; object() will
        return immediately if it's just the first pass. This means that
        force_object() should be used to create stand-alone objects.

        Each object now has an insert() method that defines how it gets
        placed into the regex tree. Most objects inherit theirs from the
        base object class.

        The walker() method is also now abstracted -- each node it comes
        across will have its walk() method called. And the ending node for
        stack-type nodes has been abstracted to the ender() method of the
        node.

        The init() method has been moved to another file to help keep *this*
        file as abstract as possible. Regexp::Parser installs its handlers
        in Regexp/Parser/Handlers.pm. That file might end up being where
        documentation on writing handlers goes.

        The documentation on sub-classing includes an ordered list of what
        packages a method is looked up in for a given object of type 'OBJ':
        YourMod::OBJ, YourMod::__object__, Regexp::Parser::OBJ,
        Regexp::Parser::__object__.

    Cleaner Grammar Flow
        Now the only places 'atom' gets pushed to the queue are after an
        opening parenthesis or after 'atom' matches. This makes things flow
        more cleanly.

    Flag Handlers
        Flag handlers now receive an additional argument that says whether
        they're being turned on or off. Also, if the flag handler returns 0,
        that flag is removed from the resulting object's visual flag set.
        That means "(?gi-o)" becomes "(?i)".

    Diagnostics and Bug Fixes
        More tests added (specifically, making sure "(?(N)T|F)" works
        right). In doing so, found that the "too many branches" error wasn't
        being raised until the second pass. Figured out how to improve the
        grammar to get it to work properly. Also added tests for the new
        captures() method.

        I changed the field 'class' to 'family' in objects. I was getting
        confused by it, so I figured it was a sign that I'd chosen an awful
        name for the field. There will still be a class() method in
        __object__, but it will throw a "use of class() is deprecated"
        warning.

        Quantifiers of the form "{n}" were being misrepresented as "{n,}".
        It's been corrected. (Mike Lambert)

        "\b" was being turned into "b" inside a character class, instead of
        a backspace. (Mike Lambert)

        Fixed errant "Quantifier unexpected" warning raised by a zero-width
        assertion followed by "?", which doesn't warrant the warning.

        Added "Unrecognized escape" warnings to *all* escape sequence
        handlers.

        The 'g', 'c', and 'o' flags now evoke "Useless ..." warnings when
        used in flag and non-capturing group constructs.

  0.01 -- June 29, 2004
    First Release
        Documentation not complete, etc.

CAVEATS
    * Bugs...?
        I'd like to say this module doesn't have bugs. I don't know of any
        in this current version, because I've tried to fix those I've
        already found. Those who find bugs should email me. Messages should
        include the code you ran that contains the bug, and your opinion on
        what's wrong with it.

    * Variable interpolation
        This module parses *regexes*, not Perl. If you send a single-quoted
        string as a regex with a variable in it, that '$' will be
        interpreted as an anchor. If you want to include variables, use
        "qr//", or mix single- and double-quoted strings in building your
        regex.
