Re: The story of a strange line of code: pos($_) = pos($

Hi ambrus

Yes, combining \G and pos() is buggy. See also [bugs?] perldoc perlre, \G and pos() ...š

Actually I wanted to send a bug report ... :-(

Cheers Rolf

UPDATEs: š) pos()=pos() is a workaround I used, indicating an implementation problem!

His problem has nothing to do with pos. pos was his solution.	[reply]

and `pos($_) = pos($_);` was my solution when dealing with \G. But I have to admit that I'm not understanding everything ambrus is talking about. Cheers Rolf UPDATE: corrected typo! (thx ikegami)	[reply] [d/l]
