  • Constructor Details

    • REProgram

      public REProgram(Operation operation, int parens, REFlags flags)
      Constructs a program object from a character array
      Parameters:
      operation - Array with RE opcode instructions in it. The "next"
      parens - Count of parens in the program pointers within the operations must already have been converted to absolute offsets.
      flags - the regular expression flags
  • Method Details

    • setBacktrackingLimit

      public void setBacktrackingLimit(int limit)
    • getBacktrackingLimit

      public int getBacktrackingLimit()
    • isNullable

      public boolean isNullable()
      Ask whether the regular expression is known statically to match a zero length string
      Returns:
      true if the regex is known statically to match a zero length string. If the result is true, then there is definitely a match; if the result is false, then it is not known statically whether there is a match (this arises when the expression contains back-references).
    • getPrefix

      public UnicodeString getPrefix()
      Returns a copy of the prefix of current regular expression program in a character array. If there is no prefix, or there is no program compiled yet, getPrefix will return null.
      Returns:
      A copy of the prefix of current compiled RE program
