Hi!
I'm trying to write a simple XML-parser and I wonder how regular
expressions in Ada works. Can I use variables as in Pearl so that these
are assigned a value according to the values found in the string. Say
for example that I have a file looking like this:
<Name="Michael" Phone="7980438" Age="22"/>
I want to extract Michael, 7989438 and 22 from the string above and
assign these to some variables. Is it possible to use regular
expressions in Ada to do this or do I have to use procedure/functions
from the Ada.Strings package?

Thanks!
