<p>C++ API: Regular Expressions. </p>
<h2>Regular Expression API</h2>
<p>The ICU API for processing regular expressions consists of two classes, <code><a class="el" href="classRegexPattern.html" title="Class RegexPattern represents a compiled regular expression.">RegexPattern</a></code> and <code><a class="el" href="classRegexMatcher.html" title="class RegexMatcher bundles together a reular expression pattern and input text to...">RegexMatcher</a></code>. <code><a class="el" href="classRegexPattern.html" title="Class RegexPattern represents a compiled regular expression.">RegexPattern</a></code> objects represent a pre-processed, or compiled regular expression. They are created from a regular expression pattern string, and can be used to create <code><a class="el" href="classRegexMatcher.html" title="class RegexMatcher bundles together a reular expression pattern and input text to...">RegexMatcher</a></code> objects for the pattern.</p>
<p>Class <code><a class="el" href="classRegexMatcher.html" title="class RegexMatcher bundles together a reular expression pattern and input text to...">RegexMatcher</a></code> bundles together a regular expression pattern and a target string to which the search pattern will be applied. <code><a class="el" href="classRegexMatcher.html" title="class RegexMatcher bundles together a reular expression pattern and input text to...">RegexMatcher</a></code> includes API for doing plain find or search operations, for search and replace operations, and for obtaining detailed information about bounds of a match. </p>
<p>Note that by constructing <code><a class="el" href="classRegexMatcher.html" title="class RegexMatcher bundles together a reular expression pattern and input text to...">RegexMatcher</a></code> objects directly from regular expression pattern strings application code can be simplified and the explicit need for <code><a class="el" href="classRegexPattern.html" title="Class RegexPattern represents a compiled regular expression.">RegexPattern</a></code> objects can usually be eliminated. </p>
