the pattern must have a fixed width.
- got rid of array-module dependencies; the match pro-
gram is now stored inside the pattern object, rather
than in an extra string buffer.
- cleaned up a various of potential leaks, api abuses,
and other minors in the engine module.
- use mal's new isalnum macro, rather than my own work-
around.
- untabified test_sre.py. seems like I removed a couple
of trailing spaces in the process...
"lastgroup" is the name of the last matched capturing group,
"lastindex" is the index of the same group. if no group was
matched, both attributes are set to None.
the (?P#) feature will be removed in the next relase.
used by the code generator)
- changed max repeat value in engine (to match earlier array fix)
- added experimental "which part matched?" mechanism to sre; see
http://hem.passagen.se/eff/2000_07_01_bot-archive.htm#416954
or python-dev for details.
(those semantics are weird...)
- got rid of $Id$'s (for the moment, at least). in other
words, there should be no more "empty" checkins.
- internal: some minor cleanups.
(test_sre still complains about split, but that's caused by
the group reset bug, not split itself)
- added more mark slots
(should be dynamically allocated, but 100 is better than 32.
and checking for the upper limit is better than overwriting
the memory ;-)
- internal: renamed the cursor helper class
- internal: removed some bloat from sre_compile
