Member Enumeration Documentation

AnchorType

enum a_util::regex::RegularExpression::AnchorType

Enumerator
AT_Unanchored	No anchoring.
AT_Start	Anchor at start only.
AT_Both	Anchor at start and end.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

RegularExpression() [1/3]

a_util::regex::RegularExpression::RegularExpression

(

)

Default constructor

RegularExpression() [2/3]

a_util::regex::RegularExpression::RegularExpression	(	const std::string &	pattern,
		bool	case_sensitive = true )

Constructor with a preinitialized pattern

Parameters

[in]	pattern	The regular expression pattern
[in]	case_sensitive	Whether or not the match is case sensitive

Note

On error, the instance is initialized to the default state/the pattern is not set

DTOR

RegularExpression() [3/3]

a_util::regex::RegularExpression::RegularExpression

(

const RegularExpression &

other

)

Copy constructor

Parameters

[in]

other

The object to copy.

Member Function Documentation

fullMatch() [1/2]

bool a_util::regex::RegularExpression::fullMatch

(

const std::string &

text

)

const

Check if the whole string matches the pattern.

Parameters

[in]

text

The string to match

Returns

true if the string matches, false otherwise

fullMatch() [2/2]

bool a_util::regex::RegularExpression::fullMatch	(	const std::string &	text,
		std::string &	arg1,
		std::string &	arg2 = noArg(),
		std::string &	arg3 = noArg(),
		std::string &	arg4 = noArg(),

		std::string &	arg13 = noArg(),
		std::string &	arg14 = noArg(),
		std::string &	arg15 = noArg(),
		std::string &	arg16 = noArg() ) const

Check if the whole string matches the pattern, extracting up to 16 capture groups

Parameters

[in]	text	The string to match
[out]	arg1	Capture argument 1
[out]	arg2	Capture argument 2
[out]	arg3	Capture argument 3
[out]	arg4	Capture argument 4
[out]	arg5	Capture argument 5
[out]	arg6	Capture argument 6
[out]	arg7	Capture argument 7
[out]	arg8	Capture argument 8
[out]	arg9	Capture argument 9
[out]	arg10	Capture argument 10
[out]	arg11	Capture argument 11
[out]	arg12	Capture argument 12
[out]	arg13	Capture argument 13
[out]	arg14	Capture argument 14
[out]	arg15	Capture argument 15
[out]	arg16	Capture argument 16

Returns

@ true if the string matches, false otherwise

getError()

const std::string & a_util::regex::RegularExpression::getError

(

)

const

Get any error description for the pattern.

Returns

The current error. Might be empty if the pattern is valid.

getPattern()

std::string a_util::regex::RegularExpression::getPattern

(

)

const

Get the current pattern (expression).

Returns

The current pattern.

match()

bool a_util::regex::RegularExpression::match	(	const std::string &	text,
		AnchorType	anchor,
		int &	consumed ) const

Matches a string

Parameters

[in]	text	The string to match
[in]	anchor	See AnchorType
[out]	consumed	The length of the match

Returns

true if the string matches, false otherwise

operator=()

RegularExpression & a_util::regex::RegularExpression::operator=

(

const RegularExpression &

other

)

Copy assignment operator

Parameters

[in]

other

The element to copy to.

Returns

A reference of the local object.

setPattern()

bool a_util::regex::RegularExpression::setPattern	(	const std::string &	pattern,
		bool	case_sensitive = true )

Set the regular expression pattern

Parameters

[in]	pattern	The regular expression string
[in]	case_sensitive	Whether or not the match is case sensitive

Returns

false if the pattern is invalid, see getError for details
