2.0 Regexp \Z matches where it shouldn't

Added by josh.cheek (Josh Cheek) over 11 years ago. Updated over 11 years ago.


Description

=begin
for ruby in ~/.rbenv/versions/{1.9.3-p327,2.0.0-p0}/bin/ruby
do
"$ruby" -v
"$ruby" -e 'p /x.*?\Z$/ =~ "x\ny"'
done

:In Ruby 1.9: (({nil}))
:In Ruby 2.0: (({0}))

If you remove the "y" from the string, or add more, then they do the same thing.
The temporary solution I'm using to get around this is to replace (({\Z})) with (({\n\z}))
=end

Pasted version from 1.9, here is my actual output with both versions:

ruby 1.9.3p327 (2012-11-10 revision 37606) [x86_64-darwin12.2.0]
nil
ruby 2.0.0p0 (2013-02-24 revision 39474) [x86_64-darwin12.2.0]
0

Also realized the regex here ends with \Z$, but can be shown with just \Z.

Here is an updated example:

versions

$ for n in 1.9 2; do ruby$n -v; done
ruby 1.9.3p327 (2012-11-10 revision 37606) [x86_64-darwin12.2.0]
ruby 2.0.0p0 (2013-02-24 revision 39474) [x86_64-darwin12.2.0]

This one made me think that maybe the /m flag is set

$ for n in 1.9 2; do ruby$n -e 'p "x\ny"[/\A.*\Z/]'; done
nil
"x"

But it's not:

$ for n in 1.9 2; do ruby$n -e 'p "x\ny"[/\A.*\Z/m]'; done
"x\ny"
"x\ny"

$ for n in 1.9 2; do ruby$n -e 'p "x\ny"[/x.*y/]'; done
nil
nil

And the behaviour can be shown to exist even with the /m flag on

$ for n in 1.9 2; do ruby$n -e 'p "x\ny"[/.*?\Z/m]'; done
"x\ny"
"x"
