Anyone want to contribute some cool tests?
I've just checked in code to add combined enumerated character
classes to PGE, enabling regexes like the following:
<+alpha+[_]> # alphabetic characters and underscores
<alpha-[jJ]> # alphabetic characters except 'j' or 'J'
<-digit> # any character except a digit
So far PGE has only one test for each of the first two forms.
That's clearly inadequate, as there are probably many other
combinations that we should be testing. So, patches and
contributions are greatly desired -- they probably belong in the
rx_charclass or rx_subrule files of t/compilers/pge/p6regex/ .
For reference, the specification that defines the syntax
is the "Extensible Metasyntax" section of Synopsis 5.
Thanks!
Pm
