Author: Frank Chang Date: To: pcre-dev Subject: [pcre-dev] Is it possible to match a UTF-8 string containing 3 or
more far apart PCRE UTF-8 codepoints?
Good morning, We are trying to match the German string 44 41 53 20 74 61
75 73 65 6E 64 73 63 68 C3 B6 6E 65 20 4A 75 6E 67 66 72 C3 A4 75 6C 65 69
6E 74 61 75 73 65 6E 64 73 63 68 C3 A7 6E 65 20 with the PCRE regex
\x{00F6}.*\x{00E4}.*\x{00E7). C/C++ PCRE compiles this regex successly
pcre_exec returns 1 match, at byte positions 14 and 45 instead of 4
matches. Our hypothesis is that we have the wrong PCRE regex? If so, what
might be a PCRE regex that functions properly. THank you.
