Re^2: Matching and making accesible an arbitrary number of subpatterns w/a regex?

That does not work when the string doesn't contain any colon:

my $src_string = 'aaa';
my @results = $src_string =~ /([^:]*):/g;
use Data::Dumper; print Dumper \@results;
__END__
$VAR1 = [];

It seems to me from the OP's description that it will always end in a semi-colon. If not, add it: `my $src_string = 'aaa:bbb:ccc:ddd:eee'; my @results = "$src_string:" =~ /([^:]*):/g;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
