Bug ID: 78207
Summary: outdated comment outlining wrong edition of REs in
g-regexp.ads (GNAT.Regexp) for GNAT.Regpat
Product: gcc
Version: 7.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: ada
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: georggcc at googlemail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
The introductory comment in GNAT.Regexp about GNAT.Regpat states
that the latter is an implementation of V7 regular expressions
using the same internal data structures are Henry Spencer's.
It used to be/do, I think, but now is a Perloid extension.
The comment within package GNAT.Regpat proper (g-regpat.ads)
reflects this. I think the comment in the "overarching"
package GNAT.Regexp has not been updated.
