Hi there,
I have a rather simple question.
It's a good idea/programming practice to reuse a Matcher Object?
I mean following:
If I want to find two distinct things with regex I can use:
Dim M1 As Matcher
M1 = Regex.Matcher("some_regex.*?<\/", fullText)
Do While M1.Find
[...]
Loop
Dim M2 As Matcher
M2 = Regex.Matcher("some_other_regex.*?<\/", fullText)
Do While M2.Find
[...]
Loop
Now, I've used following too and it worked just fine:
Dim M1 As Matcher
M1 = Regex.Matcher("some_regex.*?<\/", fullText)
Do While M1.Find
[...]
Loop
M1 = Regex.Matcher("some_other_regex.*?<\/", fullText)
Do While M1.Find
[...]
Loop
Both work, but which is right way to do it?
Thanks in advance
