Function `std.regex.matchAll`

Initiate a search for all non-overlapping matches to the pattern re in the given input. The result is a lazy range of matches generated as they are encountered in the input going left to right.


						
				auto matchAll(R, RegEx)
				(
				

				  R input,
				

				  RegEx re
				

				)
				

				if (isSomeString!R && isRegexFor!(RegEx, R));
				

				

				auto matchAll(R, String)
				(
				

				  R input,
				

				  String re
				

				)
				

				if (isSomeString!R && isSomeString!String);
				

				

				auto matchAll(R, String)()
				

				if (isSomeString!R && isSomeString!String);

This function picks the most suitable regular expression engine depending on the pattern properties.

re parameter can be one of three types:

Plain string(s), in which case it's compiled to bytecode before matching.
Regex!char (wchar/dchar) that contains a pattern in the form of compiled bytecode.
StaticRegex!char (wchar/dchar) that contains a pattern in the form of compiled native machine code.

Returns

RegexMatch object that represents matcher state after the first match was found or an empty one if not present.
