Description
Enumeration type of the TPerlRegEx State property.
Possible states:
| State | Meaning |
|---|---|
|
preNotBOL |
Do not match ^ or \A at the start of the Subject string. Set this State if the Subject string is not the logical beginning of the data the user is working with. |
|
preNotEOL |
Do not match $ or \Z at the end of the Subject string. Set this state if the Subject string is not the logical end of the data the user is working with. |
|
preNotEmpty |
Do not match an empty string, i.e. if Match returns true, MatchedText will never be an empty string. This can be useful if everything in your regular expression is optional (e.g.: a?b?c?). The match returned is normally the leftmost, longest match. If the subject is "dabdabc", it would match the empty string right before "d". With this option, the regex will match "ab" (chars 2 and 3 in the subject), the leftmost, longest match that is not an empty string. MatchAgain will match "abc" at the end of the subject. |
