StringRegExp - Matching


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I am struggeling again with a simple expression. I want to search for ccc and get aaa as return (for fff i expect ddd and so on).

aaa := bbb OR
           ccc;
    ddd := eee OR
           fff;
    ggg := hhh OR
           iii;

here is my code:

#Region Includes
    #include <Array.au3>
    #include <Date.au3>
    #include <File.au3>
    #include <Misc.au3>
    #include <String.au3>
#EndRegion Includes

#Region Main
    _Main()

    Func _Main()
        Local $sgData
        $sgData &= "    aaa := bbb OR" & @CRLF
        $sgData &= "           ccc;" & @CRLF
        $sgData &= "    ddd := eee OR" & @CRLF
        $sgData &= "           fff;" & @CRLF
        $sgData &= "    ggg := hhh OR" & @CRLF
        $sgData &= "           iii;" & @CRLF

        Local $arMatch = StringRegExp($sgData, "(?ms)^.+?iii\b", 3)
        _ArrayDisplay($arMatch)
    EndFunc   ;==>_Main

I am not getting the match I am expecting. Thanks for your help!

Try this.

#include <Debug.au3>

_Main()

Func _Main()
    Local $sgData
    $sgData &= "    aaa := bbb OR" & @CRLF
    $sgData &= "           ccc;" & @CRLF
    $sgData &= "    ddd := eee OR" & @CRLF
    $sgData &= "           fff;" & @CRLF
    $sgData &= "    ggg := hhh OR" & @CRLF
    $sgData &= "           iii;" & @CRLF
    $sgData &= "    jjj := kkk OR" & @CRLF
    $sgData &= "           ccc;" & @CRLF

    $sSearch = "ccc" ; "fff" ; "iii" ;

    Local $sMatch = StringRegExpReplace($sgData, "\s+([a-z]{3}).+\s+" & $sSearch & ";(\R)|\R*.*", "\1\2")
    ConsoleWrite(StringStripWS($sMatch, 2) & @CRLF) ; $STR_STRIPTRAILING (2) = strip trailing white space

    ; Or

    Local $aMatch = StringRegExp($sgData, "([a-z]{3}).+\s+" & $sSearch, 3)
    _DebugArrayDisplay($aMatch)

EndFunc   ;==>_Main

My try... (for the fun)

#include <Array.au3>

Local $sgData
$sgData &= "aaa := bbb OR" & @CRLF
$sgData &= "           ccc;" & @CRLF
$sgData &= "dddd := eee OR" & @CRLF
$sgData &= "           fff;" & @CRLF
$sgData &= "    ggggg := hhh OR" & @CRLF
$sgData &= "           iii;" & @CRLF

$search = "fff"  ;"iii"  ;"ccc"  ;

$res = StringRegExp($sgData, '(\S+).+\s+' & $search, 3)
_ArrayDisplay($res)

$res = StringRegExpReplace($sgData, '(?ms).*(?=(?:^|\h)(\H+)\h:=.+?' & $search & ').*', "$1")
Msgbox(0,"", $res)
