Static methods

staticcount(subj:String, patt:EitherType<Rex, String>, cf:Int, ef:Int):Dynamic

This function counts matches of the pattern patt in the string subj.

staticinlinecreate(expr:String, flag:EitherType<Int, String>):Rex

staticfind(patt:EitherType<Rex, String>, subj:String, ?init:Int, ?ef:Int):Dynamic

The function searches for the first match of the regexp patt in the string subj, starting from offset init, subject to flags cf and ef.

staticflags(?tb:Dynamic):Dynamic

staticgmatch(subj:String, patt:EitherType<Rex, String>, ?cf:Int, ?ef:Int):() ‑> String

The function is intended for use in the generic for Lua construct. It returns an iterator for repeated matching of the pattern patt in the string subj, subject to flags cf and ef.

staticgsub(subj:String, patt:EitherType<Rex, String>, repl:Dynamic, ?n:Int, ?cf:Int, ?ef:Int):String

This function searches for all matches of the pattern patt in the string subj and replaces them according to the parameters repl and n.

staticmatch(patt:EitherType<Rex, String>, subj:String, ?init:Int, ?ef:Int):Dynamic

The function searches for the first match of the regexp patt in the string subj, starting from offset init, subject to flags cf and ef.

Returns:

staticsplit(subj:String, sep:EitherType<Rex, String>, ?cf:Int, ?ef:Int):() ‑> String

The function is intended for use in the generic for Lua construct. It is used for splitting a subject string subj into parts (sections). The sep parameter is a regular expression pattern representing separators between the sections.

Methods

exec(subj:String, ?init:Int, ?ef:Int):Dynamic

This function searches for the first match of the regexp in the string subj, starting from offset init, subject to execution flags ef.

tfind(subj:String, ?init:Int, ?ef:Int):Dynamic

The function searches for the first match of the regexp in the string subj, starting from offset init, subject to execution flags ef.
