I just wanted to clarify if I missed something obvious at the current state that makes these checks necessary :-). So I think it is good to have the checks, but as the conditions should not become true (provider->match.string should not be NULL in these cases) I think it would be good to emit additionally an error message in these cases, as something seems to be rotten then. So the only point that remains is checking for match.regex in front of the regular expression for the sake of clarity. Regards Rüdiger
