Hi again,
I just found the PBE2 - chapter on Regex.
First of all: That is an excellent chapter, thanks a lot guys for writing
and providing it!!!
It doesn't mention {} quantifiers, so I guess it is simply a feature too new
in Regexes for it to be supported by Vassily's Regex code.
So I started a new tiny experiment:
'123{' matchesRegex: '\123{' --> true
which means the regex matcher treats { as a normal character. I guess this
is okay with Regex 1.1, a version that didn't know {} quantifiers, right?
Is anybody aware of a Regex matcher in Smalltalk that supports a newer Regex
version?
I am asking because in an application I need to process an impressive set of
business rules provided by a third party that is expressed with lots of
regexes. It would be nice if I could simply use these expressions uniformly
for both HTML5 input fields and my Server application in Seaside...
Joachim
