1 1.1 pgoyette regular expression test set 2 1.1 pgoyette Lines are at least three fields, separated by one or more tabs. "" stands 3 1.1 pgoyette for an empty field. First field is an RE. Second field is flags. If 4 1.1 pgoyette C flag given, regcomp() is expected to fail, and the third field is the 5 1.1 pgoyette error name (minus the leading REG_). 6 1.1 pgoyette 7 1.1 pgoyette Otherwise it is expected to succeed, and the third field is the string to 8 1.1 pgoyette try matching it against. If there is no fourth field, the match is 9 1.1 pgoyette expected to fail. If there is a fourth field, it is the substring that 10 1.1 pgoyette the RE is expected to match. If there is a fifth field, it is a comma- 11 1.1 pgoyette separated list of what the subexpressions should match, with - indicating 12 1.1 pgoyette no match for that one. In both the fourth and fifth fields, a (sub)field 13 1.1 pgoyette starting with @ indicates that the (sub)expression is expected to match 14 1.1 pgoyette a null string followed by the stuff after the @; this provides a way to 15 1.1 pgoyette test where null strings match. The character `N' in REs and strings 16 1.1 pgoyette is newline, `S' is space, `T' is tab, `Z' is NUL. 17 1.1 pgoyette 18 1.1 pgoyette The full list of flags: 19 1.1 pgoyette - placeholder, does nothing 20 1.1 pgoyette b RE is a BRE, not an ERE 21 1.1 pgoyette & try it as both an ERE and a BRE 22 1.1 pgoyette C regcomp() error expected, third field is error name 23 1.1 pgoyette i REG_ICASE 24 1.1 pgoyette m ("mundane") REG_NOSPEC 25 1.1 pgoyette s REG_NOSUB (not really testable) 26 1.1 pgoyette n REG_NEWLINE 27 1.1 pgoyette ^ REG_NOTBOL 28 1.1 pgoyette $ REG_NOTEOL 29 1.1 pgoyette # REG_STARTEND (see below) 30 1.1 pgoyette p REG_PEND 31 1.1 pgoyette 32 1.1 pgoyette For REG_STARTEND, the start/end offsets are those of the substring 33 1.1 pgoyette enclosed in (). 34
