Perl split match regular expression with or
I cannot seem to get this to work correct:


Code:
my ($k, $v) = split(/F[W\:|V]/, $fc{$DIR}{symbolic}, 2);

Below is the input (the $fc{$DIR}{symbolic} variable):

Code:
QMH2562 FW:v5.06.03 DVR:v8.03.07.15.05.09-k

but i also need it to break on FV:

Code:
Emulex NC553i FV4.2.401.6 DV8.3.5.86.2p

the code above mostly does it and i can remove extra characters with a few post processing bits, but i would like to do it with a regular expression.

Thanks,
Sean

And what would you like to get in $k and $v?

Are you looking for something like this?

Code:
my ($k,$v) = ($1,$2) if(m/(.+)F[W:|V](.+)/);
