First up: ereg. I've added a couple of new snippets based on the MySQL snippets that allow us to provide alternatives in the big red warning box atop each page, since that approach seems to work well there. I'll add more variations as required as I work through the various extensions that need to be updated. In general, I'd like to use this approach more consistently moving forward as we deprecate and remove things, since it gives the user a very obvious link to follow to find out about the new way of doing things. git-svn-id: https://svn.php.net/repository/phpdoc/en/trunk@338425 c90b9560-bf6c-de11-be94-00142212c4b1

PHP also supports regular expressions using a Perl-compatible syntax
|
|
using the <link linkend="book.pcre">PCRE functions</link>. Those functions
|
|
support non-greedy matching, assertions, conditional subpatterns, and a
|
|
number of other features not supported by the POSIX-extended regular
|
|
expression syntax.
|
|
</para>
|
|
</tip>
|
|
<warning>
|
|
<para>
|
|
These regular expression functions are not binary-safe. The <link
|
|
linkend="book.pcre">PCRE functions</link> are.
|
|
</para>

Regular expressions are used for complex string manipulation.
|
|
PHP uses the POSIX extended regular expressions as defined by POSIX
|
|
1003.2. For a full description of POSIX regular expressions see the <link xlink:href="&url.regex.man;">regex
|
|
man pages</link> included in the regex directory in the PHP distribution. It's
|
|
in manpage format, so you'll want to do something along the lines of
|
|
<command>man /usr/local/src/regex/regex.7</command> in order to read it.
