regex - Django regular expression confusion involving unicode -

-

we're trying use beautifulsoup through django text extraction. we've got odd bug we've traced down following don't understand.

if issue following in standard python prompt:

import re print re.match("&#([0-9]+)[^0-9]","»")

we output of none, should expected. however, when put code in sgmllib.py (which django calls through long string of calls via our website), python does match this, , returns object. it's appearing though django somehow ignoring x in above string. assume has got related unicode settings, , on, can't seem figure out why django running differently opposed when run code ourselves in vanilla python 2.6 session.

why should regular expression above not match when run normally, does match, when django tries it?

the 'x' part of string testing. if don't account in regular expression won't match. python working correctly. surprised if django behaves differently, maybe there bug somewhere else. if adding 'x' gives problems in django, can try this: 

>>> rc = re.match("&#[xx]?([0-9]+)","»") >>> rc.group(1) '00'

how copy observablecollection item observablecollection without reference of first collection? here observablecollection item value changes affecting both collections. code private observablecollection<ratemodel> _allmetalrate = new observablecollection<ratemodel>(); private observablecollection<ratemodel> _metalrateondate = new observablecollection<ratemodel>(); public observablecollection<ratemodel> allmetalrate { { return this._allmetalrate; } set { this._allmetalrate = value; notifypropertychanged("metalrate"); } } public observablecollection<ratemodel> metalrateondate { { return this._metalrateondate; } set { this._metalrateondate = value; notifypropertychanged("metalrateondate"); } } foreach (var item in metalrateondate) allmetalrate.add(item); what causing , how can solve it? you need clone object referenced item before it's a...

All overlapping substrings matching a java regex -

-
is there api method returns (possibly overlapping) substrings match regular expression? for example, have text string: string t = 04/31 412-555-1235; , , have pattern: pattern p = new pattern("\\d\\d+"); matches strings of 2 or more characters. the matches are: 04, 31, 412, 555, 1235. how overlapping matches? i want code return: 04, 31, 41, 412, 12, 55, 555, 55, 12, 123, 1235, 23, 235, 35. theoretically should possible -- there obvious o(n^2) algorithm enumerates , checks substrings against pattern. edit rather enumerating substrings, safer use region(int start, int end) method in matcher . checking pattern against separate, extracted substring might change result of match (e.g. if there non-capturing group or word boundary check @ start/end of pattern). edit 2 actually, it's unclear whether region() expect zero-width matches. specification vague, , experiments yield disappointing results. for example: string line = "xx90xx"; strin...
