Converting a regular expression to a string in Ruby
Is there a way of generating a string that would match a regular expression in Ruby
e.g.
regex output
^\d{6}开发者_高级运维$ 875914
^\d{3}-\w{2} 584-AS
From a response on a related SO question - Matt Aimonetti's randexp might be of some use. Not generalised to all regexp though...
EDIT: This version looks more up-to-date.
I haven't tested it, but this looks like something you're looking for: http://code.google.com/p/xeger/
Note that I cannot believe it will handle more complex regex-es (using look-arounds, back-references, etc.). But again, I haven't tested it.
EDIT: sorry, I now just saw you're looking for a Ruby implementation...
