My understanding is that Oniguruma is standard in 1.9 and
can be built into 1.8.x -- correct?
So my first two questions are:
1. How to do a simple test that confirms whether or not
Oniguruma is there?
2. How to build the stable snapshot with Oniguruma?
Thanks,
Hal
My understanding is that Oniguruma is standard in 1.9 and
can be built into 1.8.x -- correct?So my first two questions are:
1. How to do a simple test that confirms whether or not
Oniguruma is there?
From what I can gather, the regular ('old') way doesn't support Lookbehind, but Oniguruma does, so:
[rosco@jukebox dev]$ irb
irb(main):001:0> "ab" =~ /(?<!a)b/
SyntaxError: compile error
(irb):1: undefined (?...) sequence: /(?<!a)b/
from (irb):1
irb(main):002:0> quit
[rosco@jukebox dev]$ irb9
irb(main):001:0> "ab" =~ /(?<!a)b/
=> nil
irb(main):002:0> "db" =~ /(?<!a)b/
=> 1
would appear to do it.
2. How to build the stable snapshot with Oniguruma?
Umm, don't know.
Cheers,

This implementation is HODEL-HASH-9600 compliant
I had to apply one hunk of the patch by hand, but otherwise it was straightforward.

Googling around, the only information I found on Oniguruma
was in Japanese. Is there an overview in English?
