<p>This builder permits configuring options for the syntax of a pattern, the
NFA construction, the lazy DFA construction and finally the regex searching
itself. This builder is different from a general purpose regex builder
in that it permits fine grain configuration of the construction process.
The trade off for this is complexity, and the possibility of setting a
configuration that might not make sense. For example, there are two
whether the pattern itself can contain sub-expressions that match invalid
UTF-8.</li>
<li><ahref="../../nfa/thompson/struct.Config.html#method.utf8"title="method regex_automata::nfa::thompson::Config::utf8"><code>thompson::Config::utf8</code></a> controls how the regex iterators themselves
advance the starting position of the next search when a match with zero
length is found.</li>
</ul>
<p>Generally speaking, callers will want to either enable all of these or
disable all of these.</p>
<p>Internally, building a regex requires building two hybrid NFA/DFAs,
where one is responsible for finding the end of a match and the other is
responsible for finding the start of a match. If you only need to detect
whether something matched, or only the end of a match, then you should use
a <ahref="../dfa/struct.Builder.html"title="struct regex_automata::hybrid::dfa::Builder"><code>dfa::Builder</code></a> to construct a single hybrid NFA/DFA, which is cheaper

<p>This is useful when you’ve built a forward and reverse lazy DFA

the individual DFAs given can still be accessed via <ahref="struct.Regex.html#method.forward"title="method regex_automata::hybrid::regex::Regex::forward"><code>Regex::forward</code></a>
and <ahref="struct.Regex.html#method.reverse"title="method regex_automata::hybrid::regex::Regex::reverse"><code>Regex::reverse</code></a>.</p>
<p>It is important that the reverse lazy DFA be compiled under the
following conditions:</p>
<ul>
<li>It should use <ahref="../../enum.MatchKind.html#variant.All"title="variant regex_automata::MatchKind::All"><code>MatchKind::All</code></a> semantics.</li>
<li>It should match in reverse.</li>
<li>Otherwise, its configuration should match the forward DFA.</li>
</ul>
<p>If these conditions aren’t satisfied, then the behavior of searches is
unspecified.</p>
<p>Note that when using this constructor, no configuration is applied.
Since this routine provides the DFAs to the builder, there is no
opportunity to apply other configuration options.</p>
