some thing wrong with regex.search about cp2k-output-tools HOT 8 OPEN

sorry for the late reply: is there a chance you could attach the file you are trying to parse? The first ~20 lines should be sufficient I think.

from cp2k-output-tools.

In case you did also use the file to parse from the README.md, I have the suspicion there is something different for Python on Windows. Can you try to add the following line after line 74 in the C:\Program Files\Python311\Lib\site-packages\cp2k_output_tools\blocks\program_info.py file, try again and send me the output of that line:

    print("end:", end, type(end))

from cp2k-output-tools.

Or run this:

import sys
print("maxsize:", sys.maxsize, type(sys.maxsize))
print("hello, there"[0:sys.maxsize])

from cp2k-output-tools.

Nevermind, this already helps. My suspicion was that for some reason sys.maxsize is different on Windows, but it does not seem to be the case.

Could you try the following as well?

import sys
import regex
print(regex.compile(r"b+").search("aaaabbbbbbcccc", 0, sys.maxsize))

from cp2k-output-tools.

from cp2k-output-tools.

And does it work with this?

import sys
import re
print(re.compile(r"b+").search("aaaabbbbbbcccc", 0, sys.maxsize))

I am trying to figure out whether it's a general issue with the re package, or a bug in the regex one.

I found the template in README.md is working normally in Linux. And the tools is also not commonly in Windows.
