Forums Bug Reports regex \0 change

in 6.21 \0 was returning the number of matches from the current point, in 6.3 its just returning total matches.

ie:
$regsubex(test,/(.)/g,\0) would return 4321 but now its returning 4444

no! in 6.21 and 6.3 return 4444
in version 6.2 return 4321

The \0 behaviour hasn't changed. Perhaps you're thinking of \n, which would give 1234 for the above example (not 4321).

Since \0 is supposed to give the total number of matches it seems reasonable for it not to change.

I just tested it again on 6.2 and it returns 4321

hm, just checked versions.txt and for 6.21 changes it says

20.Fixed $regsubex() bug with \0 parameter and various other

i guess that was it
