I am using NSRegularExpression to search for certain words in a
string.  To interrogate the results I use something like:

NSArray *matches = [regularExpression matchesInString: myString
options:0 range: NSMakeRange(0, [myString length])];

for (NSTextCheckingResult *match in matches)
{
    NSRange matchRange = [match range];
    NSUInteger  index = matchRange.location;
    etc...
}

Is there any guarantee that the matchRanges will be in order as they
appear in the string? In other words, will the matches array be
ordered when returned?

- Koen.
