Named Character Classes In Regular Expressions.

Hi, all,
Does any body recognize \p{name} in Regular Expression? In MSDN, it says
the \p{name} represents a named character class, the original description
is as follows:

"Matches any character in the named character class specified by {name}.
Supported names are Unicode groups and block ranges. For example, Ll, Nd,
Z, IsGreek, IsBoxDrawing."

I want to know whether those named character classes are predefined or not?
If they were not predefined, how to define a named character class that would
be referencable by the '\p{name}' mark? Thank you all:)

Best regards,
Laser Lu

say i wanted to match a string to a regular expression, but i was only given the string one character at a time. one way to do this would be to evaluate the most recently submitted character along with every previously submitted character, however, that way seems like it would be unnecessarily inefficient. another way i can see of doing this would be to have a function that can access the previous state and return the state that the...

Hey guys, I want to be able to insert a '-' character in front of all numeric values in a string. I want to insert the '-' character to use in conjunction with the getopt.getopt() function.

However, with getopt.getopt(), it'll only return what I want if I input -2a -3ab as my string. I don't...

Hi, Quick question here, and wondering if anyone can help. I often see the hash character ('#') in regular expressions and am wondering what purpose it is supposed to serve. Example: #(?<=|^) Every bit of online documentation I have looked at states the hash character's purpose is merely to denote the line is a comment. Clearly this is not the case if the regular expression is actually being used to test for something. Can anyone...

When I attempt to name a group in a regular expression under TR1, the library throws a non descriptive error "regular expression error". The numbered reference group works, as in /1 to reference the first group. However, any attempt to use (?<myGroup>expression) fails? Does anyone have any insight into this? Thanks! -Velik

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
