Google's libphonenumber project provides regular expressions for matching IDD prefixes, as well as, in some cases, the preferred or default IDD code for a country. Data for the "idd_code()" function in Number::Phone::Country is already derived from libphonenumber. This revision makes the IDD prefix regular expressions available via a new "idd_regex()" function in Number::Phone::Country, thus making it possible to match telephone numbers against possible IDDs for a given given ISO Alpha-2 country code.

thanks, merged |

This will be in the next quarterly release, which should be some time in September. |

Thanks for merging this, and sorry for the late response. |

Google's libphonenumber project provides regular expressions for matching IDD prefixes, as well as, in some cases, the preferred or default IDD code for a country. Data for the
idd_code()function in Number::Phone::Country is already derived from libphonenumber.This revision makes the IDD prefix regular expressions available via a new
idd_regex()function in Number::Phone::Country, thus making it possible to match telephone numbers against possible IDDs for a given given ISO Alpha-2 country code.As an example, the regular expression for Australia (AU) will match a number of IDD prefixes, including 0011, 0014, and 0015, making it possible to determine that 001516502530000 could be a US number being dialled from Australia.
idd_regex()might go some way to solving the problem discussed in #39.
