Struct Match

pub(crate) struct Match {
    pid: PatternID,
    start: *const u8,
    end: *const u8,
}

A match type specialized to the Teddy implementations below.

Essentially, instead of representing a match at byte offsets, we use raw pointers. This is because the implementations below operate on raw pointers, and so this is a more natural return type based on how the implementation works.

Also, the PatternID used here is a u16.

Fields

pid: PatternID

start: *const u8

end: *const u8

Implementations

impl Match

pub(crate) fn pattern(&self) -> PatternID

Returns the ID of the pattern that matched.

pub(crate) fn start(&self) -> *const u8

Returns a pointer into the haystack at which the match starts.

pub(crate) fn end(&self) -> *const u8

Returns a pointer into the haystack at which the match ends.
