Struct ieql::common::pattern::CompiledPattern

pub struct CompiledPattern { /* fields omitted */ }

A CompiledPattern is a Pattern whose RegEx has been compiled or, in the case that the PatternType is raw, whose expression has been RegEx escaped and then compiled (as RegEx).

Methods

impl CompiledPattern

pub fn quick_check(&self, other: &String) -> bool

This function performs a 'quick check' for matching on the given string. It simply returns a boolean value representing whether the string matches the pattern or not. This function is more performant, but less featureful, than full_check.

pub fn full_check(&self, other: &String) -> Option<PatternMatch>

This function performs a 'full check' on the given text; more specifically, it determines whether the pattern matches the given text and then, if so, assembles a PatternMatch.

Returns Some(PatternMatch) if there is a match. Otherwise, the function returns None.

Trait Implementations

impl CompilableTo<CompiledPattern> for Pattern

fn compile(&self) -> Result<CompiledPattern, Issue>

This function compiles the Pattern into a CompiledPattern by escaping the RegEx expression as necessary and then compiling it.

impl Clone for CompiledPattern

fn clone(&self) -> CompiledPattern

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.
