replaced re with regex #6

Closed berendt closed 10 years ago

There are a lot of errors because of "look-behind requires fixed-width pattern".

Using regex (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/regex) instead of re allows us to compile every available pattern.

Loaded 3596 rules (0 errors, 43 disabled)

needs further testing, looks like not all rules are working like expected

Thanks, I didn't know this project exists. This is definitely a good idea.

Do you have any examples of rules working incorrectly?

Tested on openSUSE 13.1 (Python 2.7.6).

No, I meant working incorrectly with the new regex module. You said "looks like not all rules are working like expected". Or did I misunderstand?

berendt commented 10 years ago

Only with re. With regex all rules are working like expected.
