in thread How to improve regex for parsing equals delimited data

my @fld = map /=s*(.+)/, /\b +\b/g; print join( ',', @fld ), "\n";

Update: Thanks Lotus1, it should be:

my @fld = map /=\s*(.+)/, split /\b +\b/; print join( ',', @fld ), "\n";

    I like the idea of using map this way but I couldn't get this to work. It just prints blank lines. I tried putting a '\' in front of the s* but that didn't help. It looks to me like the /\b +\b/g won't return anything without parenthesis. I'm not sure how to make this work.
