NEST HelpDesk Command Index NEST Quick Reference
Name:
regex_find_s - Check if a regex is included in a string
Synopsis:
string string -> boolean
Examples:
(hello) (is there a hello hiding) regex_find -> true
(hello) (is there a HeLlO hiding) regex_find -> false
Description:
Takes the first argument. Converts to regex and calls
regexec to find out if this regex matches the string. Reports
success/failure in a boolean true/false.
Parameters:
in: first argument :a string which will be converted
to a regex by a regcomp call.
second argument : a string where this
regex should be matched.
out: true/false telling if there is/is no match.
Bugs:
-
Diagnostics:
Will raise an /InvalidRegexError if regcomp cannot
compile the regex. Try immidiate
:regerror = to find out why!
Remarks:
Compiles regex and calls regex_find_s.
Does _not_ return any information about the matched
expression more than matched/not matched; use lower
level commands regcomp, regexec if in need!
