REG_BADRPT
public static final int REG_BADRPT
- Error flag.
Invalid use of repetition operators such as using
`*' as the first character.
REG_BADBR
public static final int REG_BADBR
- Error flag.
Invalid use of back reference operator.
REG_EBRACE
public static final int REG_EBRACE
- Error flag.
Un-matched brace interval operators.
REG_EBRACK
public static final int REG_EBRACK
- Error flag.
Un-matched bracket list operators.
REG_ERANGE
public static final int REG_ERANGE

Invalid use of the range operator, eg. the ending
point of the range occurs prior to the starting
point.
REG_ECTYPE
public static final int REG_ECTYPE
- Error flag.
Unknown character class name. Not implemented.
REG_EPAREN
public static final int REG_EPAREN
- Error flag.
Un-matched parenthesis group operators.
REG_ESUBREG
public static final int REG_ESUBREG
- Error flag.
Invalid back reference to a subexpression.
REG_EEND
public static final int REG_EEND
- Error flag.
Non specific error. Not implemented.
REG_ESCAPE
public static final int REG_ESCAPE
- Error flag.
Invalid escape sequence. Not implemented.
REG_BADPAT
public static final int REG_BADPAT
- Error flag.
Invalid use of pattern operators such as group or list.

public static final int REG_ESIZE
- Error flag.
Compiled regular expression requires a pattern
buffer larger than 64Kb. Not implemented.
REG_ESPACE
public static final int REG_ESPACE
- Error flag.
The regex routines ran out of memory. Not implemented.
getType
public int getType()
- Returns the type of the exception, one of the constants listed above.
getPosition
public int getPosition()
- Returns the position, relative to the string or character array being
compiled, where the error occurred. This position is generally the point
where the error was detected, not necessarily the starting index of
a bad subexpression.
getMessage
public String getMessage()
- Reports the descriptive message associated with this exception
as well as its index position in the string or character array
being compiled.
- Overrides:
