stregex with multiple matches [message #88670]

Hello,

Can stregex match an expression multiple times? It seems not, but I get the feeling there ought to be a way to do so. For example:

IDL> time_regex = '([01][0-9]|2[0-3]):([0-5][0-9]):([0-5][0-9])'

IDL> timeStr = '10:21:41"
IDL> print, stregex(timeStr, time_regex)
0

Ok, that is what expected

IDL> timeStr = '10:21:41 - 11:32:00"
IDL> print, stregex(timeStr, time_regex)
0

But in the second example, why aren't there two matches? can I change my regex in some why to get multiple matches?

Thanks
