DIPcre is an advanced regular expression engine for Boland Delphi. Regular expressions are a very powerfull extension of wildcard (?*) matching and allow to find almost any pattern within any string or text.The implemented regular expression syntax is Perl 5 compatible and provides full substring capturing, case sensitive and insensitive matching, greedy and non-greedy repetition quantifiers, backtracking, assertions and more.In addition, DIPcre includes two regular expression edits: TDIPcreEdit and TDIPcreComboBox. Both validate user entry against a regular expression pattern and are quite similar to, but more powerfull then Delphi's TMaskEdit.DIPcre utilizes *.obj files compiled from the PCRE C-library which compile straight into your exe. Borland even choose PCRE to ship with its C++ Builder. This makes DIPcre the most powerfull regular expression library for Delphi, both freeware and commercial.
