[hl] Compilation target not supported due to lackof Unicode RegEx support #20

Closed grepsuzette closed 1 year ago

grepsuzette commented 5 years ago

Hi I get this targeting HashLink on Haxe 4 RC 5

yaml/Parser.hx:2002: characters 9-81 : Compilation target not supported due to lackof Unicode RegEx support

Will HashLink be supported soon? (it would be a shame not to!) Since this is likely the fault of HL API itself has there been an issue reported on github so I can follow the discussion? (Or maybe there is some secret switch I can define so as to only support ASCII regex?) Good job with this lib btw!

I made a miserable fork for HashLink without utf8 regex classes. Your eyes will bleed so don't look at this and forgive me https://github.com/emugel/hx-yaml/ I hope HashLink can quickly have what's missing here and I can go back to this one version.

Hey @Gama11 thanks for your interested and fork.

I don't have a huge amount of time to maintain this library anymore. That said, if there was a solid PR which has support + test coverage, and which doesn't refactor or impact existing code then we may be able to get it released.

Same issue when targetting PHP 😢

But PHP regular expressions supports Unicode since version 5.1.0: https://www.php.net/manual/en/regexp.reference.unicode.php

The EReg class from the Haxe standard library uses these features (since v4.0.0, it seems it was not the case with v3.4.x): https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/haxe/blob/4.1.2/std/php/_std/EReg.hx
