Detailed Description

Perl-compatible regex.

Member Function Documentation

compile()

bool SlPCRE2::PCRE2::compile ( std::string_view  regex, uint32_t  options = 0  )

inlinenoexcept

Compile PCRE2 regex with passed options.

Parameters

regex	Regex to compile
options	Options to use (like PCRE2_CASELESS)

Returns

true on success

errToStr()

static std::string SlPCRE2::PCRE2::errToStr ( int  err )

inlinestatic

Converts PCRE2 error code err to string.

Parameters

err	PCRE2 error code

Returns

Error string.

match()

int SlPCRE2::PCRE2::match ( std::string_view  subject )

inlinenoexcept

PCRE2 against subject.

Parameters

subject

Text to match the regex to

Returns

negative on error, 1 for no match, 2 for one group matched, ...

matchByIdx()

auto SlPCRE2::PCRE2::matchByIdx ( std::string_view  subject, unsigned  index  ) const

inlinenoexcept

Returns one match – a substring of subject.

Parameters

subject	Subject matched
index	Index of the requested match

Returns

Matched string.

matches()

auto SlPCRE2::PCRE2::matches ( std::string_view  subject, unsigned  matches  ) const

inlinenoexcept

Returns Matches (a pseudo-vector of matches) in subject.

Parameters

subject	Subject matched
matches	Number of matches – the return value of match()

Returns

Pseudo-vector of matches.

ovector()

auto SlPCRE2::PCRE2::ovector ( ) const

inline

Returns offset (into the subject string) vector for all matches.

Returns

An array of size_t values.

Preferrably, use matches() or matchByIdx() wrappers.
