$ ocaml -I +pcre
Objective Caml version 3.08.1
# #load "pcre.cma";;
# let rex = Pcre.regexp "(:?([a-z]+)\\s+)*";;
val rex : Pcre.regexp = <abstr>
# Pcre.extract_all ~rex "a b c d ee ff ";;
(* Hangs, rapidly consuming memory. Killed with ^C ... *)
Interrupted.
# Gc.full_major ();;
- : unit = ()
The Gc.full_major () doesn't recover any memory.
On a more general point, how do I access all the strings captured by
the inner brackets in a pattern like (:? (..) )* ?
Rich.
