Ken,
A you know with OVAL Version 5.6
we change the regular expression syntax in OVAL to the subset of capabilities
defined here:
http://oval.mitre.org/language/about/re_support_5.6.html
For OVAL version 5.5 and earlier
the requirement to use POSIX syntax has not changed. We feel that we cannot
change the old releases.

Subject: [OVAL-DEVELOPER-LIST] PERL / POSIX regex
Hi,
Is the intent that an OVAL 5.6 processor use PERL regex for
all pattern match operations, or only for pattern match operations in content
with a schema version greater than or equal to 5.6 (and POSIX for prior)?
(xml has been reduced for clarity)
<generator>
<oval:schema_version>5.6</oval:schema_version>
</generator>
Thanks,
Ken
