Potentially unexpected behaviour with "=" character

[s16h]

Is it expected that parse("b={}", "ab=cd") is None? I was expecting to get <Result ('cd',) {}>.

Did you mean parse("ab={}", "ab=cd")? Because your expression and the string do not actually match. If you're trying to match any characters at the beginning of the string, before the ...b= part, you might be looking for something like this:

>>> parse("{}b={}", "ab=cd")
<Result ('a', 'cd') {}>

Or you could use search to find your parse pattern inside a larger string. Either way, looks like this report may be closed.

Thanks for the clarification. I has misunderstood.
