NSRegularExpression does not match anything after CRLF. Why?

In Swift 4.2, NSRegularExpression does not match anything after CRLF. Why?



let str = "rnfoo"
let regex = try! NSRegularExpression(pattern: "foo")
print(regex.firstMatch(in: str, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: str.count))) // => nil


If you remove "r" or "n", you get a instance of NSTextCheckingResult.

    It's a range issue. Use NSRange(location: 0, length: str.utf16.count) instead. If you used rnfoooooooooooo (I explicitly add extra char), you would have found it. It's just that your range calculation doesn't cover the "full string range".

In Swift 4 a new initializer of NSRange was introduced to convert reliably Range<String.Index> to NSRange.



Use it always, it solves your issue.



let str = "rnfoo"
let regex = try! NSRegularExpression(pattern: "foo")
print(regex.firstMatch(in: str, range: NSRange(str.startIndex..., in: str)))
