API DOC
----------------------------------------------------------------------
TRex *trex_compile(const TRexChar *pattern,const TRexChar **error);

compiles an expression and returns a pointer to the compiled version.
in case of failure returns NULL.The returned object has to be deleted
through the function trex_free().

pattern
	a pointer to a zero terminated string containing the pattern that 
	has to be compiled.
error
	apointer to a string pointer that will be set with an error string
	in case of failure.
	
----------------------------------------------------------------------
void trex_free(TRex *exp)

deletes a expression structure created with trex_compile()

exp
	the expression structure that has to be deleted

----------------------------------------------------------------------
TRexBool trex_match(TRex* exp,const TRexChar* text)

returns TRex_True if the string specified in the parameter text is an
exact match of the expression, otherwise returns TRex_False.

exp
	the compiled expression
text
	the string that has to be tested
	
----------------------------------------------------------------------
TRexBool trex_search(TRex* exp,const TRexChar* text, const TRexChar** out_begin, const TRexChar** out_end)

searches the first match of the expressin in the string specified in the parameter text.
if the match is found returns TRex_True and the sets out_begin to the beginning of the
match and out_end at the end of the match; otherwise returns TRex_False.

exp
	the compiled expression
text
	the string that has to be tested
out_begin
	a pointer to a string pointer that will be set with the beginning of the match
out_end
	a pointer to a string pointer that will be set with the end of the match

----------------------------------------------------------------------
TREX_API TRexBool trex_searchrange(TRex* exp,const TRexChar* text_begin,const TRexChar* text_end,const TRexChar** out_begin, const TRexChar** out_end)

searches the first match of the expressin in the string delimited 
by the parameter text_begin and text_end.
if the match is found returns TRex_True and the sets out_begin to the beginning of the
match and out_end at the end of the match; otherwise returns TRex_False.

exp
	the compiled expression
text_begin
	a pointer to the beginnning of the string that has to be tested
text_end
	a pointer to the end of the string that has to be tested
out_begin
	a pointer to a string pointer that will be set with the beginning of the match
out_end
	a pointer to a string pointer that will be set with the end of the match
	
----------------------------------------------------------------------
int trex_getsubexpcount(TRex* exp)

returns the number of sub expressions matched by the expression

exp
	the compiled expression

---------------------------------------------------------------------
TRexBool trex_getsubexp(TRex* exp, int n, TRexMatch *submatch)

retrieve the begin and and pointer to the length of the sub expression indexed
by n. The result is passed trhough the struct TRexMatch:

typedef struct {
	const TRexChar *begin;
	int len;
} TRexMatch;

the function returns TRex_True if n is valid index otherwise TRex_False.

exp
	the compiled expression
n
	the index of the submatch
submatch
	a pointer to structure that will store the result
	
this function works also after a match operation has been performend.
