| Subject: | [PATCH] Support for qr// in VALIDATE |
In AppConfig-1.56, the VALIDATE argument supports code references or
strings, the string assumed to be a regular expression. This patch
allows AppConfig to support qr// for VALIDATE.
$ perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.8 built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi
$ perl -le '$re = qr//; print ref $re'
Regexp
I have not investigated if this is correct for other versions of Perl.
