RegexIterator operation modes

RegexIterator::ALL_MATCHES

Return all matches for the current entry (see preg_match_all()).

RegexIterator::GET_MATCH

Return the first match for the current entry (see preg_match()).

RegexIterator::MATCH

Only execute match (filter) for the current entry (see preg_match()).

RegexIterator::REPLACE

Replace the current entry (see preg_replace(); Not fully implemented yet)

RegexIterator::SPLIT

Returns the split values for the current entry (see preg_split()).

RegexIterator Flags

RegexIterator::USE_KEY

Special flag: Match the entry key instead of the entry value.

RegexIterator::INVERT_MATCH

Inverts the return value of RegexIterator::accept().

An exemple :

<?php
$a
= new ArrayIterator(array('test1', 'test2', 'test3'));
$i = new RegexIterator($a, '/^(test)(\d+)/', RegexIterator::REPLACE);
$i->replacement = '$2:$1';

print_r(iterator_to_array($i));
/*
Array
(
[0] => 1:test
[1] => 2:test
[2] => 3:test
)
*/
?>

In case the difference between modes RegexIterator::MATCH and RegexIterator::GET_MATCH is not immediately clear:

MATCH will only return one value per matched element, as a string.

GET_MATCH will return as many values, per matched element, as there are sub-patterns. If there are sub-patterns, each iteration returns an indexed array with the full pattern match at 0 and each of the sub-pattern matches as another element.

If there are no sub-patterns, the behaviour of GET_MATCH is the same as MATCH.
