implementation of posix regex. PCRE is much more complex, but if you don't need
its features, this simple code can do as well. PCRE searches the first
occurrence of a pattern, and returns a lot of info like the position

Hi,
I don't think so. In WebKit we did some OpenCL optimizations, but I am not sure
the general concept of a backtracking, NFA based engine is suitable for OpenCL.
At least the whole engine is surely way too big. Perhaps something like the JIT
compiler could work, just generating C like code
I have been able to port and compile the one below but I am having a little

Getting a lot memory access error right before a seg fault. I am just doing
it wrong and need to make sure I am copying the array correctly. I have not
