Regular expressions are often used to match text expressions that follow an expected syntax.

However, the syntax of regular expressions is not very trivial to most developers.

This class provides a very developer friendly way to build regular expressions.

Detailed description

This class can be used to build regular expressions programmatically.

It provides clearly named functions to add each part of a regular expression, such as matching the beginning or end of the text, match a range of characters, match any text, match a portion of text multiple times, capture a portion of the text, etc..

The resulting regular expression can be applied on a given text string to match.
