Useless parameter ’caretMode’ in function "int QRegExp::indexIn ( const QString & str, int offset = 0, CaretMode caretMode = CaretAtZero ) const&
-
Hi, All,
I just wonder how I can use the Caretmode parameter of function "int QRegExp::indexIn ( const QString & str, int offset = 0, CaretMode caretMode = CaretAtZero ) const".
First, if offset == 0, CaretAtZero, or CaretAtOffset has same meaning, and thus CaretAtZero is not useful.
Second, if offset != 0, I should always use CaretAtOffset, since CaretAtZero has no meaning (since we don't match the string from offset 0.) Yet if I don't want to use CaretAtOffset, then I can just omit caret from the search pattern. This renders CaretAtOffset useless again.I just wonder, is there any actual useful case for the parameter 'CaretAtZero'? Forgive me poor C++: I can not think of any useful case... Could someone please point out some cases for me? Thanks.
