Re: Regex for matching dotted numbers

This doesn't necessarily have to be done on a regex...

my @ver = split /\./, $verstring;

And test for whatever you wish there.

I have done on similar line as the pattern was not consistent as I was thinking.	[reply]

Your supplied test data doesn't suggest this. If it's not 3 or 4 numbers separated by a dot, what is it? If it is separated by a dot, you can check `scalar(@ver)` to see if it's 3 or 4 numbers, and check `$ver[0]` to get your major number, and continue from there. You could even use one of the many switch analogs from CPAN to implement switch statements on the version numbers.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
