I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature
Perl version 5.24.0 on Windows, Strawberry Perl
This works
no warnings "experimental::regex_sets";
$q = qr/(?[ ( ( [ABC] - [B] ) + ( [abc] - [b] ) ) + [def] ])/;
However
no warnings "experimental::regex_sets";
$q = qr/(?[ ( [ABC] - [B] ) + ( [abc] - [b] ) + [def] ])/;
fails with Unexpected binary operator '+' with no preceding operand in
regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/(?[ ( [ABC] - [B] ) + ( [abc] - [b] ) +
<-- HERE [def] ])/
I would have though that the second option should work.
