#${^POSTMATCH}

This is similar to $' ($POSTMATCH) except that it does not incur the performance penalty associated with that variable, and is only guaranteed to return a defined value when the pattern was compiled or executed with the /p modifier.

This variable was added in Perl 5.10.

This variable is read-only and dynamically-scoped.
