## Detailed Description

A regular expression matching class.

Regexp () | ### Regexp

Creates a new, empty regexp.

explicit Regexp (const char* value, bool extended = false, bool insensitive = false) | ### Regexp

Creates a new initialized regexp.

Parameters:

value | Initial value of the regexp.
extended | True to use POSIX Extended Regular Expression syntax
insensitive | True to not differentiate case

Regexp (const Regexp& value) | ### Regexp

Copy constructor.

Parameters:

value | Initial value of the regexp.

~Regexp () | ### ~Regexp

[virtual]

Destroys the regexp, disposes the memory.

inline Regexp& operator= (const char* value) | ### operator=

Assignment from char* operator.

Reimplemented from String.

bool compile () | ### compile

[const]

Makes sure the regular expression is compiled

Returns: True if successfully compiled, false on error

bool matches (const char* value) | ### matches

[const]

Checks if the pattern matches a given value

Parameters:

value | String to check for match

Returns: True if matches, false otherwise

Reimplemented from String.

bool matches (const String& value) | ### matches

[const virtual]

Checks if the pattern matches a string

Parameters:

value | String to check for match

Returns: True if matches, false otherwise

Reimplemented from String.

void setFlags (bool extended, bool insensitive) | ### setFlags

Change the expression matching flags

Parameters:

extended | True to use POSIX Extended Regular Expression syntax
insensitive | True to not differentiate case

bool isExtended () | ### isExtended

[const]

Return the POSIX Extended syntax flag

Returns: True if using POSIX Extended Regular Expression syntax

bool isCaseInsensitive () | ### isCaseInsensitive

[const]

Return the Case Insensitive flag

Returns: True if not differentiating case

void changed () | ### changed

[protected virtual]

Called whenever the value changed (except in constructors) to recompile.

Reimplemented from String.
