I wrote this little program to test for regular expression matches. I

Visual Studio's debug output is this:
First-chance exception at 0x76fde124 in regextester.exe: 0xE0440001:
0xe0440001.
The program '[5492] regextester.exe: Native' has exited with code 1
(0x1).
To shed some light on this output.
After using Visual D quite a lot I can tell you that this output
*doesn't* mean the program crushed (in terms of segfault etc.). All it
means is that there is uncaught exception, which is quite reasonable.
Regexp parsing function throws when it detects wrong pattern. In
general, when you are uncertain on what the **uk is going on I suggest
to wrap suspicious code with :
try{
... //code
}catch(Exception e){
writeln(e);
}
to see what's the errors are.
Ty. Did that. My updated code is here:
