Function Documentation

void pattern_close (  void   )

Cleanup data structures.

cpattern_t* pattern_compile (  const gchar *  pattern  )

Compile given string pattern by computing the delta shift table. The pattern string given is duplicated. Returns: a compiled pattern structure.

cpattern_t* pattern_compile_fast (  const gchar *  pattern, size_t  plen )

Same as pattern_compile(), but the pattern string is NOT duplicated, and its length is known upon entry. Attention: NB: There is no pattern_free_fast(), just call zfree() on the result.

void pattern_free (  cpattern_t *  cpat  )

Dispose of compiled pattern.

void pattern_init (  void   )

Initialize pattern data structures.

const gchar* pattern_qsearch (  cpattern_t *  cpat, const gchar *  text, size_t  tlen, size_t  toffset, qsearch_mode_t  word )

Quick substring search algorithm. It looks for the compiled pattern with `text', from left to right. The `tlen' argument is the length of the text, and can left to 0, in which case it will be computed. Returns: pointer to beginning of matching substring, NULL if not found. Parameters: cpat  Compiled pattern text  Text we're scanning tlen  Text length, 0 = compute strlen(text) toffset  Offset within text for search start word  Beginning/whole word matching?
