Re: [Haskell-cafe] JRegex on "large" input sizes

dmhouse:

Hi all. I need a decent regex library and JRegex seems the perfect choice: simple API, yet well-featured, as well as PCRE support. I want to use it on a simple project which involves input files a little larger than typical -- between 100KB and 500KB -- but still small enough so as to not present a problem.

However, and I'm fairly sure JRegex is at fault here, my program segfaults on an input of ~230KB. Has anyone used JRegex successfully in this way before? If so, what tactics did you use?

Thanks in advance.

Perhaps try Text.Regex.Lazy? We used it with success on 5-10M files in the shootout. -- Don
