Using positive-lookahead (?=regex) with re2

by

According to the Syntax Documentation, this feature isn’t supported:

(?=re) before text matching re (NOT SUPPORTED)

Also, from WhyRE2:

As a matter of principle, RE2 does not support constructs for which only backtracking solutions are known to exist. Thus, backreferences and look-around assertions are not supported.
