Rdoc for String#=~

Added by stomar (Marcus Stollsteimer) over 11 years ago. Updated over 11 years ago.

Status:
Closed
Assignee:
Target version:
ruby -v:
ruby 1.9.3p194 (2012-04-20 revision 35410) [i686-linux]
Backport:
[ruby-core:47668]

Description

=begin
This patch clarifies the different behaviour for str =~ regexp and regexp =~ str regarding captured strings and assigning to local variables. (See also issue #7042.)

Added text:

Note: str =~ regexp is not the same as
regexp =~ str. Strings captured from named capture groups
are not assigned to local variables in the first case.
