Search

[igorm]

Hi,

I need to perform a search which will return me as result found match + one next character. Here is part of my script that finds only desired word:

$path24 = GUICtrlRead($input2)
            $inifilelisthree = _FileListToArray($path24 & '\FILES\SETUP','setup*.ini',1)
            $inifilethree = $path24 & '\FILES\SETUP\'&$inifilelisthree[1]
            $selecteditem = _GUICtrlListView_GetSelectedIndices($list1, True)
If $selecteditem[0] = 0 Then
    Else
For $i=1 To $selecteditem[0]
$getinfo = _GUICtrlListView_GetItem($list1, $selecteditem[$i])
$search = StringRegExp ($getinfo[3], "ChainedInstall_", 2)
$covertsearch = _ArrayToString($search, "|")

As return here I will get "ChainedInstall_", but I need as return "ChainedInstall_+one next character". Can somebody help me please?

Thanks.

Cheers

Just add a dot to the pattern (matches any single character). Also, type 2 only returns a single match, so I changed it to type 3 to get all global matches:

#include <array.au3>

$sString = "ChainedInstall_1 | ChainedInstall_2 | ChainedInstall_3 "
$search = StringRegExp($sString, "ChainedInstall_.", 3)
_ArrayDisplay($search, "Debug: $search")

Thanks. Works like a charm.

One more question. Can I somehow extract just this one character into variable?

That would be a Lookbehind Assertion: "(?<=ChainedInstall_)."

#include <array.au3>

$sString = "ChainedInstall_1 | ChainedInstall_2 | ChainedInstall_3 "
$search = StringRegExp($sString, "(?<=ChainedInstall_).", 3)
_ArrayDisplay($search, "Debug: $search")

New trick I just picked up in other topics on this forum...

Wow, this is really cool. Thank you very much again. This will help me a lot.
