## @deftypefn {} {@var{str} =} regexptranslate (@var{op}, @var{s})
## Translate a string for use in a regular expression.
##
## This may include either wildcard replacement or special character escaping.
##
## The behavior is controlled by @var{op} which can take the following
## values
##
## @table @asis
## @item @qcode{"wildcard"}
## The wildcard characters @code{.}, @code{*}, and @code{?} are replaced with
## wildcards that are appropriate for a regular expression. For example:
##
## @example
## @group
## regexptranslate ("wildcard", "*.m")
## @result{} '.*\.m'
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @item @qcode{"escape"}
## The characters @code{$.?[]}, that have special meaning for regular
## expressions are escaped so that they are treated literally. For example:
##
## @example
## @group
## regexptranslate ("escape", "12.5")
## @result{} '12\.5'
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @end table
## @seealso{regexp, regexpi, regexprep}
## @end deftypefn
function str = regexptranslate (op, s)
if (nargin != 2)
print_usage ();
endif
if (! ischar (op))
error ("regexptranslate: operation OP must be a string");
endif
op = lower (op);
if (strcmp ("wildcard", op))
str = strrep (strrep (strrep (s, '.', '\.'),
'*', '.*'),
'?', '.');
elseif (strcmp ("escape", op))
str = regexprep (s, '([][(){}.*+?^$|\\])', '\\$1');
else
error ("regexptranslate: invalid operation OP");
endif
endfunction
%!assert (regexptranslate ("wildcard", "/a*b?c."), "/a.*b.c\\.")
%!assert (regexptranslate ("escape", '^.?[abc]$'), '\^\.\?\[abc\]\$')
## Test input validation
%!error <Invalid call to regexptranslate> regexptranslate ()
%!error <Invalid call to regexptranslate> regexptranslate ("wildcard")
%!error <called with too many inputs> regexptranslate ("a", "b", "c")
%!error <invalid operation> regexptranslate ("foo", "abc")
%!error <operation OP must be a string> regexptranslate (10, "abc")
