SYNOPSIS

INHERITANCE

       "PPIx::Regexp::Structure::Main" is a PPIx::Regexp::Structure.

       "PPIx::Regexp::Structure::Main" is the parent of PPIx::Regexp::Structure::Regexp and
       PPIx::Regexp::Structure::Replacement.

DESCRIPTION

       This abstract class represents one of the top-level structures in the expression. Both
       PPIx::Regexp::Structure::Regexp and PPIx::Regexp::Structure::Replacement are derived from
       it.

METHODS

       This class provides the following public methods. Methods not documented here are private,
       and unsupported in the sense that the author reserves the right to change or remove them
       without notice.

   delimiters
       This method returns a string representing the delimiters of a regular expression or
       substitution string. In the case of something like "s/foo/bar/", it will return '//' for
       both the regular expression and the replacement.

   interpolates
       This method returns true if the regular expression or replacement interpolates, and false
       otherwise. All it really does is to check whether the ending delimiter is a single quote.

SUPPORT

       Support is by the author. Please file bug reports at <http://rt.cpan.org>, or in
       electronic mail to the author.
