Methods
.. spicy:method:: regexp_match_state::advance spicy::MatchState advance False tuple<int<32>,~view<stream>> (data: bytes, [ final: bool = False ])
Feeds a chunk of data into the token match state, continuing matching
where it left off last time. If *final* is true, this is assumed to be
the final piece of data; any further advancing will then lead to an
exception. Returns a 2-tuple with (1) an integer match indicator with
the same semantics as that returned by ``regexp::match()``; and (2)
the number of bytes in *data* consumed by the matching. The state must
not be used again once an integer larger or equal zero has been
returned.
.. spicy:method:: regexp_match_state::advance spicy::MatchState advance False tuple<int<32>,~view<stream>> (data: view<stream>, [ final: bool = False ])
Feeds a chunk of data into the token match state, continuing matching
where it left off last time. If the underlying view is frozen, this
will be assumed to be last piece of data; any further advancing will
then lead to an exception. Returns a 2-tuple with (1) an integer match
indicator with the same semantics as that returned by
``regexp::match()``; and (2) a new view that's trimming *data* to the
part not yet consumed. The state must not be used again once an
integer larger or equal zero has been returned.
