HelloI have a situation where I need to refer to the subexpressions that get substituted after a match was done. I used the substituteInto method of REMatch class to accomplish it. However for subexpressions greater that 9 I am unable to refer to them. In other words, tokens are usable only from $0 through $9. $0 matches the full substring matched; $n matches subexpression number n.But when n > 9 I am unable to get the matched subexpression.
I think someone sent a patch for this to the list at some point, but I've been out of the loop and I don't remember if it was checked in to CVS. You might check the latest CVS version from savannah.gnu.org and see if it has been changed to support $10, $11, etc.
