expected VS compile-time-regular-expressions

On this topic Sy Brand is a guarantee, in fact he did the https://github.com/TartanLlama/expected and several presentation of the subject.

In the meantime, I may use the TartanLlama implementation (here) and plan around replacing it with the real deal in the near future.

Sy Brand's tl::expected

expected is my favourite little part of cpp23, I’m using it often in codebase with https://github.com/TartanLlama/expected 😁

Eventually you'll be able to use std::expected in C++23!

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/header/expected

Don't throw exceptions, require the caller to handle errors and propagate them up the stack (everything returns an expected) if they cannot be handled. You are forced to model the error domains instead of just throwing an exception and assuming the caller knows to catch it and do something with it.

Java has checked exceptions, but, Kotlin decided to abandon them.

The nice codebases I have worked on stick to the Result type in Swift or Kotlin. And thus you are forced to 'translate' errors (exceptions?) as described in Alan Griffith's 'Exceptional Java'.

https://accu.org/journals/overload/10/48/griffiths_406/

"If a checked exception is thrown (to indicate an operation failure) by a method in one package it is not to be propagated by a calling method in a second package. Instead the exception is caught and "translated". Translation converts the exception into: an appropriate return status for the method, a checked exception appropriate to the calling package or an unchecked exception recognised by the system. (Translation to another exception type frequently involves "wrapping".)"

If you can't wait for C++23, there's a single header implementation here.

CTRE (https://github.com/hanickadot/compile-time-regular-expressions) ranges::views (filter, transform, etc.) (C++20) str.find() + str.substr() freopen to stdin + cin >> extraction Parser libraries

There are suggestions that should be replaced by the high performance ctre implementation: https://github.com/hanickadot/compile-time-regular-expressions

operator"" can be used in a similar way to expression templates (DSLs), where the type of the resulting expression is dependent on the string contents. For example ctre makes use of this to build efficient regular expression parsers, and kumi uses this in conjunction with operator[] to make tuple indexing quite elegant

Check out https://github.com/hanickadot/compile-time-regular-expressions anything is possible 😂

Yes to regex, no to std::regex. Better to use CTRE. Something like "^Hello [0-9]+ how are you" should allow checking if there's a match

You could compare your implementation with https://github.com/hanickadot/compile-time-regular-expressions and see if there are any ideas you can copy.

std::compile_time_regex would be a nice addition. Something similar to ctre https://github.com/hanickadot/compile-time-regular-expressions Simply letting the compiler generate all the regex parsing machinery at compile time.... And benefitting from compiler optimizations, vectorization, etc...
