- originally had tests for regex meta characters strewn across
regExp classes as well as wordRe, keyType, string.
And had special-purpose quotemeta static function within string
that relied on special naming convention for testing the meta
characters.
The regex meta character testing/handling now relegated entirely
to the regExp class(es).
Relocate quotemeta to stringOps, with a predicate.
- avoid code duplication. Reuse some regExpCxx methods in regExpPosix
- new regExpCxx wrapper for C++11 regex support with drop-in
compatibility with existing code.
- regExpPosix (was regExp), for future phase out in favour of regExpCxx.
- The regExp header will continue to be used for defining an
appropriate typedef corresponding to the preferred implementation.
