Description
Description
Regular expression with recursive subpatterns ((?PARNO)
) matches incorrectly.
Steps to Reproduce
perl -wE '"a + b + (c + d)" =~ /^((\w|\((\s)*(?1)(?3)*\))(?:(?3)*\+(?3)*(?2))*)(?3)*\+/ or die; say $1'
Expected behavior
In this regular expression, $1
is expected to match a expression-like string with balanced parenthesis, and whole pattern is to match partial expression without the last (parenthesized in this example) term (a + b +
).
So this one-liner should print a + b
, but actually prints a + b + (c
.
