NAME

       MongoDB::BSON::Regexp - Regular expression type

VERSION

       version v1.8.1

ATTRIBUTES

   pattern
       A string containing a regular expression pattern (without slashes)

   flags
       A string with regular expression flags

METHODS

   try_compile
           my $qr = $regexp->try_compile;

       Tries to compile the "pattern" and "flags" into a reference to a regular expression.  If
       the pattern or flags can't be compiled, a "MongoDB::DecodingError" exception will be
       thrown.

       SECURITY NOTE: Executing a regular expression can evaluate arbitrary code.  You are
       strongly advised never to use untrusted input with "try_compile".
