-- Summary of Pattern Matching Packages in GNAT Hierarchy --
------------------------------------------------------------
-- the following is an outline of these packages, to help you determine
-- which is best for your needs.
--- GNAT.Regexp (files g-regexp.ads/g-regexp.adb)
+-- GNAT.Regexp (files g-regexp.ads/s-regexp.ads/s-regexp.adb)
-- This is a simple package providing Unix-style regular expression
-- matching with the restriction that it matches entire strings. It
-- is particularly useful for file name matching, and in particular
-- it provides "globbing patterns" that are useful in implementing
-- unix or DOS style wild card matching for file names.
--- GNAT.Regpat (files g-regpat.ads/g-regpat.adb)
+-- GNAT.Regpat (files g-regpat.ads/s-regpat.ads/g-regpat.adb)
-- This is a more complete implementation of Unix-style regular
-- expressions, copied from the original V7 style regular expression
-- library written in C by Henry Spencer. It is functionally the
-- language is modeled on context free grammars, with context sensitive
-- extensions that provide full (type 0) computational capabilities.

-package GNAT.Regexp is
-
- -- The regular expression must first be compiled, using the Compile
- -- function, which creates a finite state matching table, allowing
- -- very fast matching once the expression has been compiled.
-
- -- The following is the form of a regular expression, expressed in Ada
- -- reference manual style BNF is as follows
-
- -- regexp ::= term
-
- -- regexp ::= term | term -- alternation (term or term ...)
-
- -- term ::= item
-
- -- term ::= item item ... -- concatenation (item then item)
-
- -- item ::= elmt -- match elmt
- -- item ::= elmt * -- zero or more elmt's
- -- item ::= elmt + -- one or more elmt's
- -- item ::= elmt ? -- matches elmt or nothing
-
- -- elmt ::= nchr -- matches given character
- -- elmt ::= [nchr nchr ...] -- matches any character listed
- -- elmt ::= [^ nchr nchr ...] -- matches any character not listed
- -- elmt ::= [char - char] -- matches chars in given range
- -- elmt ::= . -- matches any single character
- -- elmt ::= ( regexp ) -- parens used for grouping
-
- -- char ::= any character, including special characters
- -- nchr ::= any character except \()[].*+?^ or \char to match char
- -- ... is used to indication repetition (one or more terms)
-
- -- See also regexp(1) man page on Unix systems for further details
-
- -- A second kind of regular expressions is provided. This one is more
- -- like the wild card patterns used in file names by the Unix shell (or
- -- DOS prompt) command lines. The grammar is the following:
-
- -- regexp ::= term
-
- -- term ::= elmt
-
- -- term ::= elmt elmt ... -- concatenation (elmt then elmt)
- -- term ::= * -- any string of 0 or more characters
- -- term ::= ? -- matches any character
- -- term ::= [char char ...] -- matches any character listed
- -- term ::= [char - char] -- matches any character in given range
- -- term ::= {elmt, elmt, ...} -- alternation (matches any of elmt)
-
- -- Important note : This package was mainly intended to match regular
- -- expressions against file names. The whole string has to match the
- -- regular expression. If only a substring matches, then the function
- -- Match will return False.

- type Regexp is private;

- Error_In_Regexp : exception;

- Case_Sensitive : Boolean := True)
- return Regexp;
- -- Compiles a regular expression S. If the syntax of the given
- -- expression is invalid (does not match above grammar, Error_In_Regexp
- -- is raised. If Glob is True, the pattern is considered as a 'globbing
- -- pattern', that is a pattern as given by the second grammar above
-
- function Match (S : String; R : Regexp) return Boolean;
- -- True if S matches R, otherwise False. Raises Constraint_Error if
- -- R is an uninitialized regular expression value.
