Method: TOtherGenerex then<TOtherGenerex, TOtherMatch, TOtherGenerexMatch, TMatchObject>(Func<TMatchObject, GenerexBase<T, TOtherMatch, TOtherGenerex, TOtherGenerexMatch>>, Func<T[], int, TMatch, TMatchObject>)

• Declared in: RT.Generexes.GenerexBase<T, TMatch, TGenerex, TGenerexMatch>

Declaration

protected internal TOtherGenerex then<TOtherGenerex, TOtherMatch, TOtherGenerexMatch, TMatchObject>(
    Func<TMatchObject, GenerexBase<T, TOtherMatch, TOtherGenerex, TOtherGenerexMatch>> selector,
    Func<T[], int, TMatch, TMatchObject> matchCreator
)

Summary

Returns a regular expression that matches this regular expression, then uses a specified selector to create a new regular expression from the match, and then matches the new regular expression.

Generic type parameters

TOtherGenerex Must derive from: RT.Generexes.GenerexBase<T, TOtherMatch, TOtherGenerex, TOtherGenerexMatch>.	Type of the regular expression generated by the selector.
TOtherMatch	Type of internal match information used by TOtherGenerex (i.e. int or LengthAndResult<T>).
TOtherGenerexMatch Must derive from: RT.Generexes.GenerexMatch<T>.	Type of match object returned by matches of TOtherGenerex.
TMatchObject	Type of the parameter accepted by the selector.

Parameters

Func<TMatchObject, GenerexBase<T, TOtherMatch, TOtherGenerex, TOtherGenerexMatch>>	selector	A delegate that creates a new regular expression from an object that represents a match of the current regular expression.
Func<T[], int, TMatch, TMatchObject>	matchCreator	A delegate that, given the input sequence, start index and the internal match info, constructs the match object accepted by selector.

Returns

The resulting regular expression.

Remarks

Regular expressions created by this method cannot match backwards. The full set of affected methods is listed at GenerexBase<T, TMatch, TGenerex, TGenerexMatch>.Then<TOtherGenerex, TOtherMatch, TOtherGenerexMatch>(Func<TGenerexMatch, GenerexBase<T, TOtherMatch, TOtherGenerex, TOtherGenerexMatch>>).
