Broken logical NOT in ext/misc/regexp.c

(1.1) By andse-t610 on 2021-06-04 15:05:45 edited from 1.0 [link] [source]

I have found that logical not operations like [^something], \W, \D don't work when used alone (without modifiers like + $ ^, except {}).

select 'abc' regexp '\W' ---> 1

select '123' regexp '\D' ---> 1

select 'abc' regexp 'misref' ---> 1

select 'abc' regexp '\W{1,1}' --> 1

select 'abc' regexp '\W{1}' --> 1

but

select 'abc' regexp '\W+' ---> 0

select '123' regexp '^\D' ---> 0

select 'abc' regexp 'misref$' ---> 0

select 'abc' regexp '\W{2}' --> 0

I suspect that something is wrong with the end-of-text event handling...


  1. ^ a b Misreference

Please try again with check-in 569e00d4acd42666 or later. The two check-ins that follow fix harmless compiler warnings and missing dependencies in the Makefile, so you might want to pick them up as well.

Great job! Thank you!
