Package org.apache.regexp
Class REProgram
java.lang.Object
org.apache.regexp.REProgram
- All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
A class that holds compiled regular expressions. This is exposed mainly
for use by the recompile utility (which helps you produce precompiled
REProgram objects). You should not otherwise need to work directly with
this class.

Method Details

getInstructions
public char[] getInstructions()Returns a copy of the current regular expression program in a character array that is exactly the right length to hold the program. If there is no program compiled yet, getInstructions() will return null.- Returns:
- A copy of the current compiled RE program
-
setInstructions
public void setInstructions(char[] instruction, int lenInstruction) Sets a new regular expression program to run. It is this method which performs any special compile-time search optimizations. Currently only two optimizations are in place - one which checks for backreferences (so that they can be lazily allocated) and another which attempts to find an prefix anchor string so that substantial amounts of input can potentially be skipped without running the actual program.- Parameters:
instruction
- Program instruction bufferlenInstruction
- Length of instruction buffer in use
-
getPrefix
public char[] getPrefix()Returns a copy of the prefix of current regular expression program in a character array. If there is no prefix, or there is no program compiled yet,getPrefix
will return null.- Returns:
- A copy of the prefix of current compiled RE program
