Description

SourceForge user: gschadow

I felt this was too ridiculous having had all my regexes

working well from prior versions of Saxon (7.8), Java

supporting all those so well, and now suddenly having to

redo them just because XPath version of regex is so

crippled (e.g., no word boundary \b match, which is not

easy to replace).

So, I went in and created an option to allow full regexes.

This simply shortcuts the RegexTranslator function. The

command line option is:

-fullregex

and the FeatureKey is

http://saxon.sf.net/feature/allow-full-regex
