Sorry for my late reply, and thanks for the answer. However I didn't find a
solution for the following problem:
import nre
var
tokens = newSeq[string]()
tokens = "abc >
def".match(re"\s*(\S+)\s*(?:>\s*(\S.*\S))?\s*").get.captures.toSeq() # ERROR
echo tokens[0]
tokens[0] = "ghi"
Run
The nre docs state:
Note: If you love sequtils.toSeq we have bad news for you. This library
doesn't work with it due to documented compiler limitations."
Suppose, this is still the problem... Is there a simpler workaround than to
enumerate the captures, get the values, and assign to tokens? - as e.g. in
caps = "abc > def".match(re"\s*(\S+)\s*(?:>\s*(\S.*\S))?\s*").get.captures
for cap in caps:
tokens.add(cap.get)
Run
