Earley support for Str
regular expressions.
val blank_regexp :
string ->
Earley_core.Input.buffer ->
int ->
Earley_core.Input.buffer * int
blank_regexp re
produces a blank function from the regexp re
(following the Str
syntax). There is an important limitation rega- rding regular expressions containing the newline character '\n'
, due to the fact that the Str
module only matches on strings (and not on an abstract notion of buffer). Such regular expressions can only be used if they are idempotent.
val regexp :
?name:string ->
string ->
((int -> string) -> 'a) ->
'a Earley_core.Earley.grammar
regexp ?name re g
is a grammar that parses the input according to the regular expression re
, and returns a value built by applying the function g
to a function of type int -> string
that returns the substring matched by the n
-th match group of the regexp re
(as in the Str
module). The optional name
argument is used to refer to the regular expression in error messages.
