Struct qt_core::QRegularExpression

#[repr(C)]
pub struct QRegularExpression { /* fields omitted */ }

The QRegularExpression class provides pattern matching using regular expressions.

C++ class: QRegularExpression.

C++ documentation:

The QRegularExpression class provides pattern matching using regular expressions.

Regular expressions, or regexps, are a very powerful tool to handle strings and texts. This is useful in many contexts, e.g.,

Validation	A regexp can test whether a substring meets some criteria, e.g. is an integer or contains no whitespace.
Searching	A regexp provides more powerful pattern matching than simple substring matching, e.g., match one of the words mail, letter or correspondence, but none of the words email, mailman, mailer, letterbox, etc.
Search and Replace	A regexp can replace all occurrences of a substring with a different substring, e.g., replace all occurrences of & with & except where the & is already followed by an amp;.
String Splitting	A regexp can be used to identify where a string should be split apart, e.g. splitting tab-delimited strings.

This document is by no means a complete reference to pattern matching using regular expressions, and the following parts will require the reader to have some basic knowledge about Perl-like regular expressions and their pattern syntax.

Good references about regular expressions include:

• Mastering Regular Expressions (Third Edition) by Jeffrey E. F. Friedl, ISBN 0-596-52812-4;
• the pcrepattern(3) man page, describing the pattern syntax supported by PCRE (the reference implementation of Perl-compatible regular expressions);
• the Perl's regular expression documentation and the Perl's regular expression tutorial.

Methods

impl QRegularExpression

pub unsafe fn anchored_pattern(
    expression: impl CastInto<Ref<QString>>
) -> CppBox<QString>

Returns the expression wrapped between the \A and \z anchors to be used for exact matching.

Calls C++ function: static QString QRegularExpression::anchoredPattern(const QString& expression).

C++ documentation:

Returns the expression wrapped between the \A and \z anchors to be used for exact matching.

This function was introduced in Qt 5.12.

See also Porting from QRegExp's Exact Matching.

This item is available if any(cpp_lib_version="5.12.2", cpp_lib_version="5.13.0").

pub unsafe fn capture_count(&self) -> c_int

Returns the number of capturing groups inside the pattern string, or -1 if the regular expression is not valid.

Calls C++ function: int QRegularExpression::captureCount() const.

C++ documentation:

Returns the number of capturing groups inside the pattern string, or -1 if the regular expression is not valid.

Note: The implicit capturing group 0 is not included in the returned number.

See also isValid().

pub unsafe fn copy_from(
    &mut self,
    re: impl CastInto<Ref<QRegularExpression>>
) -> MutRef<QRegularExpression>

Assigns the regular expression re to this object, and returns a reference to the copy. Both the pattern and the pattern options are copied.

Calls C++ function: QRegularExpression& QRegularExpression::operator=(const QRegularExpression& re).

C++ documentation:

Assigns the regular expression re to this object, and returns a reference to the copy. Both the pattern and the pattern options are copied.

pub unsafe fn error_string(&self) -> CppBox<QString>

Returns a textual description of the error found when checking the validity of the regular expression, or "no error" if no error was found.

Calls C++ function: QString QRegularExpression::errorString() const.

C++ documentation:

Returns a textual description of the error found when checking the validity of the regular expression, or "no error" if no error was found.

See also isValid() and patternErrorOffset().

pub unsafe fn escape(str: impl CastInto<Ref<QString>>) -> CppBox<QString>

Escapes all characters of str so that they no longer have any special meaning when used as a regular expression pattern string, and returns the escaped string. For instance:

Calls C++ function: static QString QRegularExpression::escape(const QString& str).

C++ documentation:

Escapes all characters of str so that they no longer have any special meaning when used as a regular expression pattern string, and returns the escaped string. For instance:

  QString escaped = QRegularExpression::escape("a(x) = f(x) + g(x)");
  // escaped == "a\\(x\\)\\ \\=\\ f\\(x\\)\\ \\+\\ g\\(x\\)"

This is very convenient in order to build patterns from arbitrary strings:

QString pattern = "(" + QRegularExpression::escape(name) +
                    "|" + QRegularExpression::escape(nickname) + ")";
QRegularExpression re(pattern);

Note: This function implements Perl's quotemeta algorithm and escapes with a backslash all characters in str, except for the characters in the [A-Z], [a-z] and [0-9] ranges, as well as the underscore (_) character. The only difference with Perl is that a literal NUL inside str is escaped with the sequence "\\0" (backslash + '0'), instead of "\\\0" (backslash + NUL).

pub unsafe fn wildcard_to_regular_expression(
    str: impl CastInto<Ref<QString>>
) -> CppBox<QString>

Returns a regular expression representation of the given glob pattern. The transformation is targeting file path globbing, which means in particular that path separators receive special treatment. This implies that it is not just a basic translation from "*" to ".*".

Calls C++ function: static QString QRegularExpression::wildcardToRegularExpression(const QString& str).

C++ documentation:

Returns a regular expression representation of the given glob pattern. The transformation is targeting file path globbing, which means in particular that path separators receive special treatment. This implies that it is not just a basic translation from "" to ".".

  QString wildcard = QRegularExpression::wildcardToRegularExpression("*.jpeg");
  // Will match files with names like:
  //    foo.jpeg
  //    f_o_o.jpeg
  //    föö.jpeg

Warning: Unlike QRegExp, this implementation follows closely the definition of wildcard for glob patterns:

c	Any character represents itself apart from those mentioned below. Thus c matches the character c.
?	Matches any single character. It is the same as . in full regexps.
*	Matches zero or more of any characters. It is the same as .* in full regexps.
[abc]	Matches one character given in the bracket.
[a-c]	Matches one character from the range given in the bracket.
[!abc]	Matches one character that is not given in the bracket. It is the same as [^abc] in full regexp.
[!a-c]	Matches one character that is not from the range given in the bracket. It is the same as [^a-c] in full regexp.

Note: The backslash (\) character is not an escape char in this context. In order to match one of the special characters, place it in square brackets (for example, "[?]").

More information about the implementation can be found in:

• The Wikipedia Glob article
• man 7 glob
