Subject: [ruby-core:99553] [Ruby master Bug#17113] /\K/ in separator for String#split behaves differently than /(?<=)/
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2020 09:59:35 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <redmine.issue-17113.20200811095934.13465@ruby-lang.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: redmine.issue-17113.20200811095934.13465@ruby-lang.org

Issue #17113 has been reported by hanazuki (Kasumi Hanazuki).

----------------------------------------
Bug #17113: /\K/ in separator for String#split behaves differently than /(?<=)/
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17113

* Author: hanazuki (Kasumi Hanazuki)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* ruby -v: ruby 2.8.0dev (2020-08-11T07:51:07Z master 5af983af4f) [x86_64-linux]
* Backport: 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
When a String is `#split`ted with a pattern containing /\K/ (lookbehind) operator,
the portion that matches the lookbehind pattern will not appear in the result.

```ruby
"abcd".split(/b\Kc/)  # => ["a", "d"]
"abcd".split(/(?<=b)c/)  # => ["ab", "d"] -- expected result
```

In this example, since `/b\Kc/` matches `"c"` in `"abcd"`, the result is expected to be `["ab", "d"]`. Actually `["a", "d"]` is returned.
`(?<=)` operator seems to work expectedly.
