| Final Accepted Text | |||||||
| Summary | 0001552: minor improvement in the description of […] in pattern matching notation | ||||||
| Description |
Right now the text says: "If an open bracket introduces a bracket expression as in XBD RE Bracket Expression, except that the <exclamation-mark> character ( '!' ) shall replace the <circumflex> character ( '^' ) in its role in a non-matching list in the regular expression notation, it shall introduce a pattern bracket expression. A bracket expression starting with an unquoted <circumflex> character produces unspecified results. Otherwise, '[' shall match the character itself." |
||||||
| Desired Action |
I would propose to swap the last two sentences, i.e. first: "Otherwise, '[' shall match the character itself." followed by "A bracket expression starting with an unquoted <circumflex> character produces unspecified results." Otherwise the meaning could be interpreted, that a [ would match itself, if the bracket expression was not starting with an unquoted ^ . Whereas that sentence rather relates to the 1st sentence, i.e. "If an open bracket introduces a bracket expression..." and ONLY if it does NOT result into a bracket expression, it (the [ ) shall be taken literally. Cheers, Chris. |

This problem has already been fixed by bug 0000985. This bug should be closed as a dup of 985. |

Formulation there seems fine and solve the issue from here as well. So I agree that this should be closed. |
