--- Comment #2 from Gleb Popov <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Konstantin Belousov from comment #1) > 1. '+' must not be escaped by backslash, it becomes ordinary character to > match > 2. '+' only works as metasymbol for extended regexps, so you need REG_EXTENDED According to https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Regular_Expressions/POSIX-Extended_Regular_Expressions when working in REG_BASIC mode one should use '\+' and it works just like '+' in REG_EXTENDED. > BTW, why did you specified literal 4 as flag for regexec? It was a remnant of my experimentation when comparing to grep. grep passes 4 as eflags when calling regexec. Let me reupload the test program. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
