--  Simple Regular expression matching
 
--  This package provides a simple implementation of a regular expression
--  pattern matching algorithm, using a subset of the syntax of regular
--  expressions copied from familiar Unix style utilities.
 
--  Note: this package is in the System hierarchy so that it can be directly
--  be used by other predefined packages. User access to this package is via
--  a renaming of this package in GNAT.Regexp (file g-regexp.ads).
 
with Ada.Finalization;
 
package System.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.

     (Pattern        : String;

      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.
   --  As a special case, if Pattern is the empty string it will always
   --  match.
