(Continuing a discussion from the pitch thread about a method on String to find if it’s matched completely by a Regex. Summary: There are corresponding methods for firstMatch
and prefixMatch
, but not wholeMatch
.)
Inspired by this PR to resolve overload issues because of String’s conformance to RegexComponent:
What about equalElements(pattern: some RegexComponent) -> Bool
? If other methods that also have string overloads were named similarly, that could tie in quite nicely.
