Thanks for the report. Bug is resolved in current trunk version. Tried it on the latest trunk, now it matches only without anchors (any of them). With smaller range it doesn't match as well. All above expressions are matching 'AA' using regexp 1.5 release. http://jakarta.apache.org/regexp/applet.html |
Tried matching ^(A{1}){0,2}$ on AA - fails. Without anchors it matches. Without range or with smaller range it matches. i.e ^(A{1}){1,2}$ or ^(A{1}){2,2}$ or ^(A{1}){2} all match AA correctly.
