implementation defined but it is valid to perform bitwise operations on these values and
expect the right thing to happen.

Variable Documentation
constexpr syntax_option_type std::regex_constants::awk [static]
Specifies that the grammar recognized by the regular expression engine is that used by
POSIX utility awk in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001. This option is identical to syntax_option_type
extended, except that C-style escape sequences are supported. These sequences are: \\, \a,
\b, \f, \n, \r, \t , \v, \', ', and \ddd (where ddd is one, two, or three octal digits).
Definition at line 137 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr syntax_option_type std::regex_constants::basic [static]
Specifies that the grammar recognized by the regular expression engine is that used by
POSIX basic regular expressions in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Portable Operating System
Interface (POSIX), Base Definitions and Headers, Section 9, Regular Expressions [IEEE,
Information Technology -- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), IEEE Standard
1003.1-2001].
Definition at line 119 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr syntax_option_type std::regex_constants::collate [static]
Specifies that character ranges of the form [a-b] should be locale sensitive.
Definition at line 100 of file regex_constants.h.
Referenced by std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::transform().
constexpr syntax_option_type std::regex_constants::ECMAScript [static]
Specifies that the grammar recognized by the regular expression engine is that used by
ECMAScript in ECMA-262 [Ecma International, ECMAScript Language Specification, Standard
Ecma-262, third edition, 1999], as modified in section [28.13]. This grammar is similar to
that defined in the PERL scripting language but extended with elements found in the POSIX
regular expression grammar.
Definition at line 110 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr syntax_option_type std::regex_constants::egrep [static]
Specifies that the grammar recognized by the regular expression engine is that used by
POSIX utility grep when given the -E option in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001. This option is
identical to syntax_option_type extended, except that newlines are treated as whitespace.
Definition at line 153 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr syntax_option_type std::regex_constants::extended [static]
Specifies that the grammar recognized by the regular expression engine is that used by
POSIX extended regular expressions in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Portable Operating System
Interface (POSIX), Base Definitions and Headers, Section 9, Regular Expressions.
Definition at line 127 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::format_default [static]
When a regular expression match is to be replaced by a new string, the new string is
constructed using the rules used by the ECMAScript replace function in ECMA- 262 [Ecma
International, ECMAScript Language Specification, Standard Ecma-262, third edition, 1999],
part 15.5.4.11 String.prototype.replace. In addition, during search and replace operations
all non-overlapping occurrences of the regular expression are located and replaced, and
sections of the input that did not match the expression are copied unchanged to the output
string.
Format strings (from ECMA-262 [15.5.4.11]):
• $$ The dollar-sign itself ($)
• $& The matched substring.
• $` The portion of string that precedes the matched substring. This would be
match_results::prefix().
• $' The portion of string that follows the matched substring. This would be
match_results::suffix().
• $n The nth capture, where n is in [1,9] and $n is not followed by a decimal digit. If n
<= match_results::size() and the nth capture is undefined, use the empty string instead.
If n > match_results::size(), the result is implementation-defined.
• $nn The nnth capture, where nn is a two-digit decimal number on [01, 99]. If nn <=
match_results::size() and the nth capture is undefined, use the empty string instead. If
nn > match_results::size(), the result is implementation-defined.
Definition at line 273 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::format_first_only [static]
When specified during a search and replace operation, only the first occurrence of the
regular expression shall be replaced.
Definition at line 294 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::format_no_copy [static]
During a search and replace operation, sections of the character container sequence being
searched that do not match the regular expression shall not be copied to the output
string.
Definition at line 288 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::format_sed [static]
When a regular expression match is to be replaced by a new string, the new string is
constructed using the rules used by the POSIX sed utility in IEEE Std 1003.1- 2001 [IEEE,
Information Technology -- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), IEEE Standard
1003.1-2001].
Definition at line 281 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr syntax_option_type std::regex_constants::grep [static]
Specifies that the grammar recognized by the regular expression engine is that used by
POSIX utility grep in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001. This option is identical to syntax_option_type
basic, except that newlines are treated as whitespace.
Definition at line 145 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr syntax_option_type std::regex_constants::icase [static]
Specifies that the matching of regular expressions against a character sequence shall be
performed without regard to case.
Definition at line 79 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::match_any [static]
If more than one match is possible then any match is an acceptable result.
Definition at line 228 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::match_continuous [static]
The expression only matches a sub-sequence that begins at first .
Definition at line 238 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::match_default [static]
The default matching rules.
Definition at line 196 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::match_not_bol [static]
The first character in the sequence [first, last) is treated as though it is not at the
beginning of a line, so the character (^) in the regular expression shall not match
[first, first).
Definition at line 203 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::match_not_bow [static]
The expression \b is not matched against the sub-sequence [first,first).
Definition at line 216 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::match_not_eol [static]
The last character in the sequence [first, last) is treated as though it is not at the end
of a line, so the character ($) in the regular expression shall not match [last, last).
Definition at line 210 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::match_not_eow [static]
The expression \b should not be matched against the sub-sequence [last,last).
Definition at line 222 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::match_not_null [static]
The expression does not match an empty sequence.
Definition at line 233 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr match_flag_type std::regex_constants::match_prev_avail [static]
--first is a valid iterator position. When this flag is set then the flags match_not_bol
and match_not_bow are ignored by the regular expression algorithms 28.11 and iterators
28.12.
Definition at line 245 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr syntax_option_type std::regex_constants::nosubs [static]
Specifies that when a regular expression is matched against a character container
sequence, no sub-expression matches are to be stored in the supplied match_results
structure.
Definition at line 86 of file regex_constants.h.
constexpr syntax_option_type std::regex_constants::optimize [static]
Specifies that the regular expression engine should pay more attention to the speed with
which regular expressions are matched, and less to the speed with which regular expression
objects are constructed. Otherwise it has no detectable effect on the program output.
Definition at line 94 of file regex_constants.h.
