33-- This package implements roughly the same set of regular expressions as
34-- are available in the Perl or Python programming languages.
35
36-- This is an extension of the original V7 style regular expression library
37-- written in C by Henry Spencer. Apart from the translation to Ada, the
38-- interface has been considerably changed to use the Ada String type
39-- instead of C-style nul-terminated strings.
40
41-- Note: this package is in the System hierarchy so that it can be directly
42-- be used by other predefined packages. User access to this package is via
43-- a renaming of this package in GNAT.Regpat (file g-regpat.ads).
44
45package System.Regpat is
46 pragma Preelaborate;
47
48 -- The grammar is the following:
49
50 -- regexp ::= expr
51 -- ::= ^ expr -- anchor at the beginning of string
52 -- ::= expr $ -- anchor at the end of string
53
54 -- expr ::= term
55 -- ::= term | term -- alternation (term or term ...)
56
57 -- term ::= item
58 -- ::= item item ... -- concatenation (item then item)
59
60 -- item ::= elmt -- match elmt
61 -- ::= elmt * -- zero or more elmt's
62 -- ::= elmt + -- one or more elmt's
63 -- ::= elmt ? -- matches elmt or nothing
64 -- ::= elmt *? -- zero or more times, minimum number
65 -- ::= elmt +? -- one or more times, minimum number
66 -- ::= elmt ?? -- zero or one time, minimum number
67 -- ::= elmt { num } -- matches elmt exactly num times
68 -- ::= elmt { num , } -- matches elmt at least num times
69 -- ::= elmt { num , num2 } -- matches between num and num2 times
70 -- ::= elmt { num }? -- matches elmt exactly num times
71 -- ::= elmt { num , }? -- matches elmt at least num times
72 -- non-greedy version
73 -- ::= elmt { num , num2 }? -- matches between num and num2 times
74 -- non-greedy version
75
76 -- elmt ::= nchr -- matches given character
77 -- ::= [range range ...] -- matches any character listed
78 -- ::= [^ range range ...] -- matches any character not listed
79 -- ::= . -- matches any single character
80 -- -- except newlines
8894aa20

81 -- ::= ( expr ) -- parenthesis used for grouping
82 -- ::= (?: expr ) -- non-capturing parenthesis

85
86 -- range ::= char - char -- matches chars in given range
87 -- ::= nchr

101 -- ::= space -- space characters
102 -- ::= upper -- upper case characters
103 -- ::= word -- alphanumeric characters
104 -- ::= xdigit -- hexadecimal chars (0..9, a..f)
105
106 -- char ::= any character, including special characters
107 -- ASCII.NUL is not supported.
108
109 -- nchr ::= any character except \()[].*+?^ or \char to match char
110 -- \n means a newline (ASCII.LF)
111 -- \t means a tab (ASCII.HT)
112 -- \r means a return (ASCII.CR)
113 -- \b matches the empty string at the beginning or end of a
114 -- word. A word is defined as a set of alphanumerical
115 -- characters (see \w below).
116 -- \B matches the empty string only when *not* at the
117 -- beginning or end of a word.
118 -- \d matches any digit character ([0-9])
119 -- \D matches any non digit character ([^0-9])
120 -- \s matches any white space character. This is equivalent
121 -- to [ \t\n\r\f\v] (tab, form-feed, vertical-tab,...
122 -- \S matches any non-white space character.
123 -- \w matches any alphanumeric character or underscore.
124 -- This include accented letters, as defined in the
125 -- package Ada.Characters.Handling.
126 -- \W matches any non-alphanumeric character.
127 -- \A match the empty string only at the beginning of the
128 -- string, whatever flags are used for Compile (the
129 -- behavior of ^ can change, see Regexp_Flags below).
130 -- \G match the empty string only at the end of the
131 -- string, whatever flags are used for Compile (the
132 -- behavior of $ can change, see Regexp_Flags below).
133 -- ... ::= is used to indication repetition (one or more terms)
134
135 -- Embedded newlines are not matched by the ^ operator.
136 -- It is possible to retrieve the substring matched a parenthesis
137 -- expression. Although the depth of parenthesis is not limited in the
138 -- regexp, only the first 9 substrings can be retrieved.
139
140 -- The highest value possible for the arguments to the curly operator ({})
141 -- are given by the constant Max_Curly_Repeat below.
142
143 -- The operators '*', '+', '?' and '{}' always match the longest possible
144 -- substring. They all have a non-greedy version (with an extra ? after the
145 -- operator), which matches the shortest possible substring.
146
147 -- For instance:
148 -- regexp="<.*>" string="<h1>title</h1>" matches="<h1>title</h1>"
149 -- regexp="<.*?>" string="<h1>title</h1>" matches="<h1>"
150 --
151 -- '{' and '}' are only considered as special characters if they appear
152 -- in a substring that looks exactly like '{n}', '{n,m}' or '{n,}', where
153 -- n and m are digits. No space is allowed. In other contexts, the curly
154 -- braces will simply be treated as normal characters.
155
156 -- Compiling Regular Expressions
157 -- =============================
158
159 -- To use this package, you first need to compile the regular expression
160 -- (a string) into a byte-code program, in a Pattern_Matcher structure.
161 -- This first step checks that the regexp is valid, and optimizes the
162 -- matching algorithms of the second step.
163
164 -- Two versions of the Compile subprogram are given: one in which this
165 -- package will compute itself the best possible size to allocate for the
166 -- byte code; the other where you must allocate enough memory yourself. An
167 -- exception is raised if there is not enough memory.
168
169 -- declare
170 -- Regexp : String := "a|b";
171
172 -- Matcher : Pattern_Matcher := Compile (Regexp);
173 -- -- The size for matcher is automatically allocated
174
175 -- Matcher2 : Pattern_Matcher (1000);
176 -- -- Some space is allocated directly.
177
178 -- begin
179 -- Compile (Matcher2, Regexp);
180 -- ...
181 -- end;
182
183 -- Note that the second version is significantly faster, since with the
184 -- first version the regular expression has in fact to be compiled twice
185 -- (first to compute the size, then to generate the byte code).
186
187 -- Note also that you cannot use the function version of Compile if you
188 -- specify the size of the Pattern_Matcher, since the discriminants will
189 -- most probably be different and you will get a Constraint_Error
190
191 -- Matching Strings
192 -- ================
193
194 -- Once the regular expression has been compiled, you can use it as often
195 -- as needed to match strings.
196
197 -- Several versions of the Match subprogram are provided, with different
198 -- parameters and return results.
199
200 -- See the description under each of these subprograms
201
202 -- Here is a short example showing how to get the substring matched by
203 -- the first parenthesis pair.
204
205 -- declare
206 -- Matches : Match_Array (0 .. 1);
207 -- Regexp : String := "a(b|c)d";
208 -- Str : String := "gacdg";
209
210 -- begin
211 -- Match (Compile (Regexp), Str, Matches);
212 -- return Str (Matches (1).First .. Matches (1).Last);
213 -- -- returns 'c'
214 -- end;
215
216 -- Finding all occurrences
217 -- =======================
218
219 -- Finding all the occurrences of a regular expression in a string cannot
220 -- be done by simply passing a slice of the string. This wouldn't work for
221 -- anchored regular expressions (the ones starting with "^" or ending with
222 -- "$").
223 -- Instead, you need to use the last parameter to Match (Data_First), as in
224 -- the following loop:
225
226 -- declare
227 -- Str : String :=
228 -- "-- first line" & ASCII.LF & "-- second line";
229 -- Matches : Match_Array (0 .. 0);
230 -- Regexp : Pattern_Matcher := Compile ("^--", Multiple_Lines);
231 -- Current : Natural := Str'First;
232 -- begin
233 -- loop
234 -- Match (Regexp, Str, Matches, Current);
235 -- exit when Matches (0) = No_Match;
236 --
237 -- -- Process the match at position Matches (0).First
238 --
239 -- Current := Matches (0).Last + 1;
240 -- end loop;
241 -- end;
242
243 -- String Substitution
244 -- ===================
245
246 -- No subprogram is currently provided for string substitution.
247 -- However, this is easy to simulate with the parenthesis groups, as
248 -- shown below.
249
250 -- This example swaps the first two words of the string:
251
252 -- declare
253 -- Regexp : String := "([a-z]+) +([a-z]+)";
254 -- Str : String := " first second third ";
255 -- Matches : Match_Array (0 .. 2);
256
257 -- begin
258 -- Match (Compile (Regexp), Str, Matches);
259 -- return Str (Str'First .. Matches (1).First - 1)
260 -- & Str (Matches (2).First .. Matches (2).Last)
261 -- & " "
262 -- & Str (Matches (1).First .. Matches (1).Last)
263 -- & Str (Matches (2).Last + 1 .. Str'Last);
264 -- -- returns " second first third "
265 -- end;
