OpCharClass

public OpCharClass(java.util.function.IntPredicate predicate)

Method Detail

getPredicate

public java.util.function.IntPredicate getPredicate()

getMatchLength

public int getMatchLength()

Description copied from class: Operation

Get the length of the matches returned by this operation if they are fixed-length

Overrides:

getMatchLength in class Operation

Returns:

the length of the matches, or -1 if the length is variable

matchesEmptyString

public int matchesEmptyString()

Description copied from class: Operation

Ask whether the regular expression is known, after static analysis, to match a zero-length string

Specified by:

matchesEmptyString in class Operation

Returns:

a value indicating whether the regex is statically known to match a zero-length string. Specifically:

• returns Operation.MATCHES_ZLS_AT_START if the expression is statically known to match a zero-length string at the start of the supplied input;
• returns Operation.MATCHES_ZLS_AT_END if it is statically known to return a zero-length string at the end of the supplied input;
• returns Operation.MATCHES_ZLS_ANYWHERE if it is statically known to match a zero-length string anywhere in the input.
• returns Operation.MATCHES_ZLS_NEVER if it is statically known that the regex will never match a zero length string.

Returning 0 means that it is not known statically whether or not the regex will match a zero-length string; this case typically arises when back-references are involved.

getInitialCharacterClass

public CharacterClass getInitialCharacterClass(boolean caseBlind)

Description copied from class: Operation

Get a CharacterClass identifying the set of characters that can appear as the first character of a non-empty string that matches this term. This is allowed to be an over-estimate (that is, the returned Character class must match every character that can legitimately appear at the start of the matched string, but it can also match other characters).

Overrides:

getInitialCharacterClass in class Operation

Parameters:

caseBlind - true if case-blind matching is in force ("i" flag)

iterateMatches

public IntIterator iterateMatches(REMatcher matcher,
                                  int position)

Description copied from class: Operation

Get an iterator returning all the matches for this operation

Specified by:

iterateMatches in class Operation

Parameters:

matcher - supplies the context for the matching; may be updated with information about captured groups

position - the start position to seek a match

Returns:

an iterator returning the endpoints of all matches starting at the supplied position

display

public java.lang.String display()

Display the operation as a regular expression, possibly in abbreviated form

Specified by:

display in class Operation

Returns:

the operation in a form that is recognizable as a regular expression or abbreviated regular expression
