Description

Flags used to customize the behavior of the regex algorithms

match_default

Specifies that matching of regular expressions proceeds without any modification of the normal rules used in ECMA-262, ECMAScript Language Specification, Chapter 15 part 10, RegExp (Regular Expression) Objects (FWD.1)

match_not_bol

Specifies that the expression "^" should not be matched against the sub-sequence [first,first).

match_not_eol

Specifies that the expression "\$" should not be matched against the sub-sequence [last,last).

match_not_bow

Specifies that the expression "\\b" should not be matched against the sub-sequence [first,first).

match_not_eow

Specifies that the expression "\\b" should not be matched against the sub-sequence [last,last).

match_any

Specifies that if more than one match is possible then any match is an acceptable result.

match_not_null

Specifies that the expression can not be matched against an empty sequence.

match_continuous

Specifies that the expression must match a sub-sequence that begins at first.

match_partial

Specifies that if no match can be found, then it is acceptable to return a match [from, last) where from != last, if there exists some sequence of characters [from,to) of which [from,last) is a prefix, and which would result in a full match.

match_prev_avail

Specifies that –first is a valid iterator position, when this flag is set then the flags match_not_bol and match_not_bow are ignored by the regular expression algorithms (RE.7) and iterators (RE.8).

format_default

Specifies that when a regular expression match is to be replaced by a new string, that the new string is constructed using the rules used by the ECMAScript replace function in ECMA-262, ECMAScript Language Specification, Chapter 15 part 5.4.11 String.prototype.replace. (FWD.1). In addition during search and replace operations then all non-overlapping occurrences of the regular expression are located and replaced, and sections of the input that did not match the expression, are copied unchanged to the output string.

format_sed

Specifies that when a regular expression match is to be replaced by a new string, that the new string is constructed using the rules used by the Unix sed utility in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Portable Operating SystemInterface (POSIX), Shells and Utilities.

format_perl

Specifies that when a regular expression match is to be replaced by a new string, that the new string is constructed using an implementation defined superset of the rules used by the ECMAScript replace function in ECMA-262, ECMAScript Language Specification, Chapter 15 part 5.4.11 String.prototype.replace (FWD.1).

format_no_copy

When specified during a search and replace operation, then sections of the character container sequence being searched that do match the regular expression, are not copied to the output string.

format_first_only

When specified during a search and replace operation, then only the first occurrence of the regular expression is replaced.

format_literal

Treat the format string as a literal.

format_all

Specifies that all syntax extensions are enabled, including conditional (?ddexpression1:expression2) replacements.
