From 1b6aecb08c5496402189f455c4f07654902a8a51 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Guido van Rossum Date: Tue, 2 May 2000 15:52:33 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] I know this is only a temporary stop-gap measure, but the match() and search() functions didn't even work because _fixflags() isn't idempotent. I'm adding another stop-gap measure so that you can at least use sre.search() and sre.match() with a zero flags arg. --- Lib/sre.py | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/Lib/sre.py b/Lib/sre.py index 0b4105721f2..79878b35c4a 100644 --- a/Lib/sre.py +++ b/Lib/sre.py @@ -31,7 +31,6 @@ def match(pattern, string, flags=0): return compile(pattern, _fixflags(flags)).match(string) def search(pattern, string, flags=0): - assert flags == 0 return compile(pattern, _fixflags(flags)).search(string) # FIXME: etc @@ -41,6 +40,6 @@ def search(pattern, string, flags=0): def _fixflags(flags): # convert flag bitmask to sequence - assert flags == 0 + assert not flags return ()
