This provides ByteString
instances for RegexMaker and RegexLike
based on Text.Regex.Posix.Wrap, and a (RegexContext Regex
ByteString ByteString) instance.
To use these instance, you would normally import Text.Regex.Posix. You only need to import this module to use the medium level API of the compile, regexec, and execute functions. All of these report error by returning Left values instead of undefined or error or fail.
The ByteString will only be passed to the library efficiently (as a pointer) if it ends in a NUL byte. Otherwise a temporary copy must be made with the 0 byte appended.

0 based index from start of source, or (-1) for unused

non-negative length of a match

ReturnCode is an enumerated CInt

Compilation options
newtype CompOption #
A bitmapped CInt
containing options for compilation of regular
expressions. Option values (and their man 3 regcomp names) are
compBlank
which is a completely zero value for all the flags. This is also theblankCompOpt
value.compExtended
(REG_EXTENDED) which can be set to use extended instead of basic regular expressions. This is set in thedefaultCompOpt
value.compNewline
(REG_NEWLINE) turns on newline sensitivity: The dot (.) and inverted set[^ ]
never match newline, and ^ and $ anchors do match after and before newlines. This is set in thedefaultCompOpt
value.compIgnoreCase
(REG_ICASE) which can be set to match ignoring upper and lower distinctions.compNoSub
(REG_NOSUB) which turns off all information from matching except whether a match exists.
compBlank :: CompOption #
A completely zero value for all the flags.
This is also the blankCompOpt
value.
compNoSub :: CompOption #
Execution options
newtype ExecOption #
A bitmapped CInt
containing options for execution of compiled
regular expressions. Option values (and their man 3 regexec names) are
execBlank
which is a complete zero value for all the flags. This is the blankExecOpt value.execNotBOL
(REG_NOTBOL) can be set to prevent ^ from matching at the start of the input.execNotEOL
(REG_NOTEOL) can be set to prevent $ from matching at the end of the input (before the terminating NUL).
execBlank :: ExecOption #
A completely zero value for all the flags.
This is also the blankExecOpt
value.
