Description : Haskell library for a tagged DFA regex engine
An alternative to GHC's Text.Regex module with some enhancements.
.
GHC's Text.Regex module marshalls the data back and forth to c-arrays to
call libc and this is far too slow (and strict).
.
This module parses regular expression Strings using a Parsec parser and
creates an internal data structure (Text.Regex.Lazy.Pattern). This is then
transformed a DFA table for matching against the input String or
FastPackedString. The input string is consumed lazily, so it may be an
arbitrarily long or infinite source.
.
This package contains the libraries compiled for GHC 6.
