Jacques Grove <jacq...@tripitinc.com> added the comment: Thanks, issue2636-20101228a.zip also resolves my compilation speed issues I had on other (very) complex regexes.
Found this one: re.search("(X.*?Y\s*){3}(X\s*)+AB:", "XY\nX Y\nX Y\nXY\nXX AB:") produces a search hit with stock python 2.6.5 regex library, but not with issue2636-20101228a.zip. re.search("(X.*?Y\s*){3,}(X\s*)+AB:", "XY\nX Y\nX Y\nXY\nXX AB:") matches on both, however. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2636> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
