escapeNul

Escapes the nul characters in @string to "\x00". It can be used to compile a regex with embedded nul characters.

escapeString

fun escapeString(string: String, length: Int): String

Escapes the special characters used for regular expressions in @string, for instance "a.b*c" becomes "a\.b\*c". This function is useful to dynamically generate regular expressions.

matchSimple

fun matchSimple(pattern: String, string: String, compileOptions: RegexCompileFlags, matchOptions: RegexMatchFlags): Boolean

Scans for a match in @string for @pattern.

new

fun new(pattern: String, compileOptions: RegexCompileFlags, matchOptions: RegexMatchFlags): <Error class: unknown class><Regex?>

Compiles the regular expression to an internal form, and does the initial setup of the #GRegex structure.

splitSimple

fun splitSimple(pattern: String, string: String, compileOptions: RegexCompileFlags, matchOptions: RegexMatchFlags): List<String>

Breaks the string on the pattern, and returns an array of the tokens. If the pattern contains capturing parentheses, then the text for each of the substrings will also be returned. If the pattern does not match anywhere in the string, then the whole string is returned as the first token.
