restrict a module to only particular lines of code	Can't Post

I want to use the module re::engine::TRE in my script for certain regex's, but not all the regex's in the script.

re::engine::TRE brings in a different regex engine than what is default in Perl, but it will not work with all my regex's in the script.

What is the best way to do this ?

The very first sentence of the DESCRIPTION section of the module's documentation states (emphasis added):

Quote

Replaces Perl's regex engine in a given lexical scope ...

This is the same scope that applies to 'my' variables.
Good Luck,
Bill
