NAME
       PPIx::Regexp::Token::Code - Represent a chunk of Perl embedded in a regular expression.


SYNOPSIS
        use PPIx::Regexp::Dumper;
        PPIx::Regexp::Dumper->new(
            'qr{(?{print "hello sailor\n"})}smx')->print;


INHERITANCE
       "PPIx::Regexp::Token::Code" is a PPIx::Regexp::Token.

       "PPIx::Regexp::Token::Code" is the parent of PPIx::Regexp::Token::Interpolation.


DESCRIPTION
       This class represents a chunk of Perl code embedded in a regular expression. Specifically, it results
       from parsing things like

        (?{ code })
        (??{ code })

       or from the replacement side of an s///e. Technically, interpolations are also code, but they parse
       differently and therefore end up in a different token.

       This token may not appear inside a regex set (i.e. "(?[ ... ])". If found, it will become a
       "PPIx::Regexp::Token::Unknown".


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.

   is_matcher
       This method returns "undef" because a static analysis can not in general tell whether an interpolated
       value matches anything.

   ppi
       This convenience method returns the PPI::Document representing the content. This document should be
       considered read only.

       Note that if the location of the invocant is available the PPI document will have stuff prefixed to it to
       make the location of the tokens in the new document consistent with the location. This "stuff" will
       include at least a "#line" directive, and maybe leading white space.
