Regular Expression help...

Given a string with some of the words in curly braces, how do I
extract the words within curly braces alone using regular expression?
Also I wouldnt know how many such words within braces exist in my
string...In such a case how do i extract all the words.

$str = "My {name} is {anand} and i seek {your} help in this
{problem}";

Anand,

Anand

Pretty straightforward:

@words = $str =~ /\{([^}]*)\}/g;
