Subject: [Caml-list] mikmatch question
Date: Fri, 15 Jun 2012 18:34:02 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4FDB720A.1090303@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

Today I decided that I will try "mikmatch".

I have stumbled upon one thing which I do not understand.

When I try this:

	RE foo = ['a'-'f'];;

there is no problem.

But when I try this:

	RE bar = [^'a'-'f'];;

I get an error message:

	Parse error: [regexp] expected after "=" (in [str_item])

I have even tried the alternative syntax:

	RE bar = #['a'-'f'];;

but neither that works.

This happens with "*mikmatch*" package which is part of:
- Debian testing
- as well as GODI

How can I express above regular expression?
(a pattern matching all but a given set of characters)

Thanks in advance for the help.
