XML::LibXML::RegExp(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML::LibXML::RegExp(3)NAME
XML::LibXML::RegExp - XML::LibXML::RegExp - interface to libxml2 regular expressions
SYNOPSIS
use XML::LibXML;
my $compiled_re = XML::LibXML::RegExp->new('[0-9]{5}(-[0-9]{4})?');
if ($compiled_re->isDeterministic()) { ... }
if ($compiled_re->matches($string)) { ... }
$compiled_re = XML::LibXML::RegExp->new( $regexp_str );
$bool = $compiled_re->matches($string);
$bool = $compiled_re->isDeterministic();
DESCRIPTION
This is a perl interface to libxml2's implementation of regular expressions, which are used e.g. for validation of XML Schema simple types
(pattern facet).
new()
$compiled_re = XML::LibXML::RegExp->new( $regexp_str );
The constructor takes a string containing a regular expression and returns a compiled regexp object.
matches($string)
$bool = $compiled_re->matches($string);
Given a string value, returns a true value if the value is matched by the compiled regular expression.
isDeterministic()
$bool = $compiled_re->isDeterministic();
Returns a true value if the regular expression is deterministic; returns false otherwise. (See the definition of determinism in the XML
spec (<http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#determinism>))

XML::LibXML::XPathExpression(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML::LibXML::XPathExpression(3)NAME
XML::LibXML::XPathExpression - XML::LibXML::XPathExpression - interface to libxml2 pre-compiled XPath expressions
SYNOPSIS
use XML::LibXML;
my $compiled_xpath = XML::LibXML::XPathExpression->new('//foo[@bar="baz"][position()<4]');
# interface from XML::LibXML::Node
my $result = $node->find($compiled_xpath);
my @nodes = $node->findnodes($compiled_xpath);
my $value = $node->findvalue($compiled_xpath);
# interface from XML::LibXML::XPathContext
my $result = $xpc->find($compiled_xpath,$node);
my @nodes = $xpc->findnodes($compiled_xpath,$node);
my $value = $xpc->findvalue($compiled_xpath,$node);
$compiled = XML::LibXML::XPathExpression->new( xpath_string );
DESCRIPTION
This is a perl interface to libxml2's pre-compiled XPath expressions. Pre-compiling an XPath expression can give in some performance
benefit if the same XPath query is evaluated many times. "XML::LibXML::XPathExpression" objects can be passed to all "find..." functions
"XML::LibXML" that expect an XPath expression.
new()
$compiled = XML::LibXML::XPathExpression->new( xpath_string );
The constructor takes an XPath 1.0 expression as a string and returns an object representing the pre-compiled expressions (the actual
data structure is internal to libxml2).

Hi,
Can anyone help me to find regular expression for the following in Perl?
"The string can only contain lower case letters (a-z) and no more than one of any letter."
For example: "table" is accepted, whether "dude" is not.
