Constructor Detail

REProgram

public REProgram(Operation operation,
                 int parens,
                 REFlags flags)

Constructs a program object from a character array

Parameters:

operation - Array with RE opcode instructions in it. The "next"

parens - Count of parens in the program pointers within the operations must already have been converted to absolute offsets.

flags - the regular expression flags

Method Detail

setBacktrackingLimit

public void setBacktrackingLimit(int limit)

getBacktrackingLimit

public int getBacktrackingLimit()

isNullable

public boolean isNullable()

Ask whether the regular expression is known statically to match a zero length string

Returns:

true if the regex is known statically to match a zero length string. If the result is true, then there is definitely a match; if the result is false, then it is not known statically whether there is a match (this arises when the expression contains back-references).

getPrefix

public UnicodeString getPrefix()

Returns a copy of the prefix of current regular expression program in a character array. If there is no prefix, or there is no program compiled yet, getPrefix will return null.

Returns:

A copy of the prefix of current compiled RE program
