0.34.1 - New line conventions, PCRE (*VERB)

[danon]

😎 T-Regx The Dinosaur is really proud to announce its release 0.34.1!

Prepared patterns are a big part of T-Regx library, there actually isn't anything in PHP world (or regular expressions for that matter), that would handle user-data in patterns in such a way as T-Regx's Prepared Patterns with @ placeholders. Among other features, the placeholders are correctly handled with \@ and \Q@\E, as well as comments #comment@\n in Extended Mode (x flag). However, comments are only ended by "\n" when PCRE newline conventions are (*LF). We're sorry to admit, that we didn't take that into account, that when you change line convention to (*CR) (or other convention for that matter), parsing of @ placeholders in comments should be updated accordingly. As of this release, newline conventions are properly being taken into account. We're holding our statement, that @ placeholders aren't being injected into comments.

The detailed list of changes is in ChangeLog.md.

Summary of changes:

• Features

  • Prepared patterns now support changing new line conventions with flag x (EXTENDED mode).

    This code is now valid:

    Pattern::inject("(*CR)#comment@\r@", ['value'], 'x');

    The first placeholder character "@" is considered a part of an extended comment, but the second
    placeholder @ is assigned value 'value'.

  • All types of PCRE newline conventions are supported: (*LF), (*CR), (*CRLF), (*ANYCRLF), (*ANY), (*NUL).

Rawrrrrrrr!
