Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Regexp

(

)

Creates a new, empty regexp.

Regexp	(	const char *	value,
		bool	extended = false,
		bool	insensitive = false
	)		[explicit]

Creates a new initialized regexp.

Parameters:

value	Initial value of the regexp.
extended	True to use POSIX Extended Regular Expression syntax
insensitive	True to not differentiate case

Regexp

(

const Regexp &

value

)

Copy constructor.

Parameters:

value

Initial value of the regexp.

virtual ~Regexp

(

)

[virtual]

Destroys the regexp, disposes the memory.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void changed

(

)

[protected, virtual]

Called whenever the value changed (except in constructors) to recompile.

Reimplemented from String.

bool compile

(

)

const

Makes sure the regular expression is compiled

Returns:

True if successfully compiled, false on error

bool isCaseInsensitive

(

)

const

Return the Case Insensitive flag

Returns:

True if not differentiating case

bool isExtended

(

)

const

Return the POSIX Extended syntax flag

Returns:

True if using POSIX Extended Regular Expression syntax

bool matches

(

const char *

value

)

const

Checks if the pattern matches a given value

Parameters:

value

String to check for match

Returns:

True if matches, false otherwise

Referenced by Regexp::matches().

virtual bool matches

(

const String &

value

)

const [inline, virtual]

Checks if the pattern matches a string

Parameters:

value

String to check for match

Returns:

True if matches, false otherwise

Reimplemented from String.

References Regexp::matches(), and String::safe().

Regexp& operator=

(

const char *

value

)

[inline]

Assignment from char* operator.

Reimplemented from String.

References String::operator=().

void setFlags	(	bool	extended,
		bool	insensitive
	)

Change the expression matching flags

Parameters:

extended	True to use POSIX Extended Regular Expression syntax
insensitive	True to not differentiate case
