in thread Identifying if a variable is the product of a qr//

although thats what I thought at first too, run the code I provided.

Did run it, but didn't notice the scalar ref matching correctly.

Using Devel::Peek, you can clearly see there is something MAGICal going on, maybe it helps...

2;1 juerd@ouranos:~$ cat dm use Devel::Peek; print Dump bless qr/foo/, 'foo'; print Dump bless \my $foo, 'foo'; 2;0 juerd@ouranos:~$ perl dm SV = RV(0x810b404) at 0x80f60ac REFCNT = 1 FLAGS = (TEMP,ROK) RV = 0x80f61a8 SV = PVMG(0x8101b30) at 0x80f61a8 REFCNT = 1 FLAGS = (OBJECT,RMG) IV = 0 NV = 0 PV = 0 MAGIC = 0x80fffe0 MG_VIRTUAL = 0x80f4f74 MG_TYPE = 'r' MG_OBJ = 0x8100160 STASH = 0x80fd414 "foo" SV = RV(0x810b404) at 0x80f60ac REFCNT = 1 FLAGS = (TEMP,ROK) RV = 0x80fd450 SV = PVMG(0x8101b30) at 0x80fd450 REFCNT = 2 FLAGS = (PADBUSY,PADMY,OBJECT) IV = 0 NV = 0 PV = 0 STASH = 0x80fd414 "foo"

    I guess it's the MG_TYPE='r' line which is indicating it's a magical Regexp, and the magic isn't affected when it's bless'ed.

    A quick look through my copy of perlguts however reveals that.. err.. r isn't listed as a possible value of MG_TYPE.

    Now planning on hitting Inline::CPP a bit more when I get home see if I can magically regexp'ify strings and visa-versa..
