Regex help

[comradeb14ck]

Hey everyone. I am parsing through a file, a web page specifically, and I am trying to figure out how to match something like:

*****************malloc***************.exe***************

where * means any character of any amount. I basically want to return true if the line contains malloc blah .exe. I have never done any regex before, and I am completely confused. I've been playing around with the tutorial page for quite a while, to no avail. If someone could help me out, I would really appreciate it. What I have right now is:

$match = StringRegExp($line, "\Amalloc(?x).exe", 2)
If @error = 0 Then
    For $i = 0 to UBound($match) - 1
        MsgBox(0, "test", $match[$i])
    Next
EndIf

In autoit3 there is a programm to test an expression with regexp Try it it's really welldone and i think you find your solution.

Hi,

you mean:

Global $text[3] = ['wrewq', '*****************malloc***************.exe***************', 'wefr32f23fmalloc ex']

For $i = 0 To UBound($text) - 1
    If StringRegExp($text[$i], "malloc.*\.exe", 0) Then MsgBox(0, "Matched", $text[$i])
Next

So long,
