Good that you linked the dictionary; it includes a lot more than I assumed.

I'm making a little virtual machine to run backtracking regular expressions. It only has a few opcodes but it's all I need for matching.
enum Opcode
{
Nop = 0,
Char,
Range,
Match,
Jmp,
Split,
Any,
Save,
}
This is such a different approach than my non-backtracking expressions, which would basically be a subset of this machine with ... 2? instructions I think but it isn't implemented that way at all.
This is pretty cool. I can add regular expression features to the core runner by adding opcodes, but for the most part, I shouldn't need to add to these.
And they should be pretty easy to emit to either IL (as compiled) or C# (table driven) instructions
My instruction pointer is basically a List<Instruction> in tandem with an integer index. If I were doing it in C or C++ it would be an actual pointer, but I think a side effect of this is mine in some ways is a bit more efficient in that it doesn't need as many heap allocs as doing this in C in the most obvious way would, simply because of the way I've organized it.
I'm a long way from an article yet. I'm not even done with my machine compiler yet, but I'm still excited about it. This is cool stuff.

You're wasting your time because nobody but you understands regular expressions.
Now that Visual Studio has kowtowed to regular expressions, I find searching for non-trivial things to be a deep PitA. Its "help" on the topic just blows. Someday I'll make time to find decent documentation on the subject. Until then, I'm sometimes reduced to a two-pass approach, of finding too much and then searching for certain substrings within the results window.

Yeah but it's not just regex. It's the little machine that's cool.
For example, matching foo|bar
L0000: split L0001, L0005
L0001: char f
L0002: char o
L0003: char o
L0004: jmp L0008
L0005: char b
L0006: char a
L0007: char r
L0008: match

It's actually necessary when dealing with naive assemblers or straight machine code as the language doesn't have labels, but it does have jmp instructions.

It is because the labels in there refer to jump locations. If i didn't include them you wouldn't know where the split or jmp instructions landed.

I actually scanned the regex articles that you posted and have to agree that it's a cool little machine.
I still have fond memories of PDP-10 assembler, in which jrst @. was a one-line infinite loop, roughly the equivalent of
sleep: goto sleep;

heh.
i like x86's xor ax,ax to set ax to zero. that was just silly, but popular back when everybody bit twiddled.

You're kind of late to the party, as I've been writing regex based lexer generators for years.

In their all-knowingness, they determined that no one uses it so it is unnecessary.
On the other hand, was it just moved somewhere, possibly as a stand-alone program?
