Dear All,

I am using the ocaml-re library

https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml-re

I have the following code:

open Re;

let a = char 'a'
let b = char 'b'

let re = seq[a;b] |> compile

let rs = exec re "caba"

let [|(1,3)|] = get_all_ofs rs

let true = execp re "cab"

let _ = assert (exec_partial re "a" = `Mismatch)

I was expecting that the exec_partial in the final line would return
`Partial, indicating that a prefix of a match was found. However, a
`Mismatch was returned instead. What is the meaning/behaviour of
exec_partial? Can I use it to perform a partial match?

Thanks

Tom
