Regular expression match
Hi all,
any idea how to match the following:
char*<no or any string or space> buf and
char *<no or any string or space> buf
i need to capture the buf characters too.
currently i need two checks to cover this:
#search char* <any string> buf or char *<any string> buf
@noarray = ($q =~ m/char\s*\*[\w\s]*\s([\w]+)/ig);
#search for char *buf
@noarray2 = ($q =~ m/char\s*\*([\w]+)/ig);
any idea how to consolidate these two conditions into one statement?

ctermid
CTERMID(3) BSD Library Functions Manual CTERMID(3)
NAME
ctermid, ctermid_r -- generate terminal pathname
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
char *
ctermid(char *buf);
char *
ctermid_r(char *buf);
DESCRIPTION
The ctermid() function generates a string, that, when used as a pathname, refers to the current controlling terminal of the calling process.
If buf is the NULL pointer, a pointer to a static area is returned. Otherwise, the pathname is copied into the memory referenced by buf.
The argument buf is assumed to be at least L_ctermid (as defined in the include file <stdio.h>) bytes long.
The ctermid_r() function provides the same functionality as ctermid() except that if buf is a NULL pointer, NULL is returned.
The current implementation simply returns '/dev/tty'.
RETURN VALUES
The ctermid() function returns buf if it is non-NULL, otherwise it returns the address of a static buffer. The ctermid_r() function always
returns buf, even if it is the NULL pointer.
ERRORS
The current implementation detects no error conditions.
SEE ALSO
ttyname(3)
STANDARDS
The ctermid() function conforms to IEEE Std 1003.1-1988 (``POSIX.1'').
BUGS
By default the ctermid() function writes all information to an internal static object. Subsequent calls to ctermid() will modify the same
object.
