I'm not, however, sure that's what one wants. It seems the most primitive operation would be to have a transform that returns the (non-trivial) match objects themselves. Everything could then be implemented on top of that (e.g. extracting various groups). There's also a question of whether, when doing a "match all", a PCollection of lists (on for each matching element) would be best to return, or a flattened pcollection of all matches from all elements (less information, so I'd defer to the former or let it be optional). ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
