grepRaw
searches for substring pattern
matches within a
raw vector x
.
grepRaw(pattern, x, offset = 1L, ignore.case = FALSE, value = FALSE, fixed = FALSE, all = FALSE, invert = FALSE)
fixed = TRUE
) to be matched in the
given raw vector. Coerced by charToRaw

matched as is.TRUE
all matches are returned,

elements that do not match. Ignored (with a warning) unless

.fixed = TRUE
.grep
, seeks matching patterns within the raw
vector x
. This has implications especially in the all =
TRUE
case, e.g., patterns matching empty strings are inherently
infinite and thus may lead to unexpected results. The argument invert
is interpreted as asking to return the
complement of the match, which is only meaningful for value =
TRUE
. Argument offset
determines the start of the search, not
of the complement. Note that invert = TRUE
with all =
TRUE
will split x
into pieces delimited by the pattern
including leading and trailing empty strings (consequently the use of
regular expressions with "^"
or "$"
in that case may
lead to less intuitive results).
Some combinations of arguments such as fixed = TRUE
with
value = TRUE
are supported but are less meaningful.
