RE: [Action-484] Create an ABNF based on http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-multilingualweb-lt/2013Apr/0047.html

Thanks Pablo,

Do you have a way to generate easily the one for java/C#/etc. ?
I'm getting errors with 'dangling *' for ".?*+(" or maybe * just need to be escaped?)

Hi Felix, Jirka, all,

Since nobody protest about the ABNF, I have updated the regex based on such ABNF. Here it is:
((\\[nrt\\|.?*+(){}\-\[\]\^])|(\\[dD]))|(\[(([^\-\[\]]|(\\[nrt\\|.?*+(){}\-\[\]\^]))-([^\-\[\]]|(\\[nrt\\|.?*+(){}\-\[\]\^]))|[^\[\]]|((\\[nrt\\|.?*+(){}\-\[\]\^])|(\\[dD])))+\])|(\.)

And the ABNF again:
[1] charClass ::= charClassEsc | charClassExpr | WildcardEsc

[2] charClassEsc ::= SingleCharEsc | MultiCharEsc

[3] SingleCharEsc ::= '\' [nrt\|.?*+(){}#x2D#x5B#x5D#x5E]

[4] MultiCharEsc ::= '\' [dD]

[5] charClassExpr ::= '[' charGroup ']'

[6] charGroup ::= posCharGroup | negCharGroup

[7] posCharGroup ::= ( charRange | charClassEsc )+

[8] charRange ::= seRange | XmlCharIncDash

[9] seRange ::= charOrEsc '-' charOrEsc

[10] charOrEsc ::= XmlChar | SingleCharEsc

[11] XmlChar ::= [^\#x2D#x5B#x5D]

[12] XmlCharIncDash ::= [^\#x5B#x5D]

[13] negCharGroup ::= '^' posCharGroup

[14] WildcardEsc ::= '.'

Finally I included the sixteen Unicode planes (0000-10FFFF) like in the ABNF and in Shaun's first version, I hope this resolves the Issue.

Cheers,
Pablo.

For the record, I won't demand this - though it would be nice.

So if there is an updated regex *excluding* the subtraction, can you see if people agree on this during today's call? I would then do the edit for allowed characters and we could close the issue-67 next week.
[PNC]: I can do a final rework to the regex based on the new ABNF since I started it, and I'm more familiar with it, so as to close the issue next week once and for all :)

Best,

Felix

Cheers,
Pablo.
