Oniguruma question

Ruby
1

I’ve just installed oniguruma (gem install) and tried this:

reg = Oniguruma::ORegexp.new("\p{Lu}", {
:encoding => Oniguruma::ENCODING_UTF8
})

Shouldn’t it match “A”? reg.match(“A”) returns nil.

Unfortunately Oniguruma fails to compile here so I can’t test, but I
think your problem is your string.
“\p” == “p”. If you want a literal \p, you need to do either “\p” or
‘\p’.
