gsub regular expression failure
msg opened this issue · comments
print(string.format('<%s>', (' one two '):gsub('^%s*', '')))
prints:
< one two >
luajit-2.1 and lua5.1 both print:
<one two >
As expected
Is this with moonjit 2.1.x or 2.2? 2.2 is not meant to be compatible with luajit-2.1.
2.2. I'm not sure compatibility is at issue here. I would expect that
regular expression to
work in any version. I guess if it doesn't, a document describing how it
works would be
necessary. I looked at the release notes for 2.2 and there is nothing
about regular expression
changes.
I also ran the same test on lua 5.3.5 and it works.
