If you have captures, you can tell which part matched. <http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/secure-testing-commits/2010-May/015549.html> Whether this is deterministic enough for your purposes depends on the implementation. On the other hand, using regular expressions for keyword matching is rather expensive because it increases the size of the representation of the regular expression. _______________________________________________ bitc-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.coyotos.org/mailman/listinfo/bitc-dev
