+    Backward, the startOffset is exclusive, the endOffset inclusive.
+
+    For regular expressions it can be greater than 1.
+    If the value is 1, startoffset[0] and endoffset[0] points to the matching sub string
+    if value is > 1, still startoffset[0] and endoffset[0] points to the matching substring for whole regular expression
+    startoffset[i] and endoffset[i] points to the matching substring of i th matching substring.
