Hi folks,
In the process of evaluating the library I came across the following
problem. I use Awk* classes to search for patterns in a big (>100MB)
file. What I can't figure out is how to keep track of the matchs' absolute
offsets (relative to the beginning of the file). I guess, I don't quite
understand the documentation. I thought the following code will give me
what I'm looking for:
long offset = 0;
while( awkMatcher.contains(input, pattern))
{
MatchResult result = awkMatcher.getMatch();
offset += result.beginOffset(0);
System.out.println( "Found match at " + offset );
}
but when I go back to the file and check the offsets they don't correspond
to the proper patterns. Any help?
Thanks
Dmitry
