  • What is the difference between using $1 vs \1 in Perl regex substitutions?

    - by Mr Foo Bar
    I'm debugging some code and wondered if there is any practical difference between $1 and \1 in Perl regex substitutions For example: my $package_name = "Some::Package::ButNotThis"; $package_name =~ s{^(\w+::\w+)}{$1}; print $package_name; # Some::Package This following line seems functionally equivalent: $package_name =~ s{^(\w+::w+)}{\1}; Are there subtle differences between these two statements? Do they behave differently in different versions of Perl?

  • C# How do I replace an actual asterisk character (*) in a Regex expression?

    - by fraXis
    Hello, I have a statement: I have a string such as content = "* test *" I want to search and replace it with so when I am done the string contains this: content = "(*) test (*)" My code is: content = Regex.Replace(content, "*", "(*)"); But this causes an error in C# because it thinks that the * is part of the Regular Expressions Syntax. How can I modify this code so it changes all asterisks in my string to (*) instead without causing a runtime error? Thanks.

  • Regex: How can I get the parameter from function?

    - by Xi
    Hi there: I am working on getting parameter from a function string. For example, my function is named "translate". So all I need to do is to get everything inbetween "translate(" and ")". Is there a way that i can use regex to do that? So far I have something like: "/translate\((?<keyName>*)\)/i" Unfortunately it's not working. Can anybody help me with this one? Thanks a lot!

  • Search backward through a string using a regex (in Python)?

    - by John Mulder
    I'm parsing some code and want to match the doxygen comments before a function. However, because I want to match for a specific function name, getting only the immediately previous comment is giving me problems. Is there a way to search backward through a string using the Python Regex library? Is there a better (easier) approach that I'm missing?

  • How can I speed up my Perl regex matching?

    - by est
    I want to capture several text using the following regex: $text_normal = qr{^(\/F\d+) FF (.*?) SCF SF (.*?) MV (\(.*?)SH$}; A sample of the string is like below: my $text = '/F12345 FF FF this is SCF SF really MV (important stuff SH'; Can that be rewritten to speed up the matching?

  • How do I extend this regex to match www.example.com in addition to http://example.com?

    - by algorithmicCoder
    I've got a regex for detecting links that works pretty well for urls of the form http://example.com, http://www.example.com etc but not for www.example.com I am trying to extend what i have so that www.foo.com also gets matched without breaking previous functionality. I tried this: /\(?\b((http|https|ftp):\/\/|)(www\.)[-A-Za-z0-9+&@#\/%?=~_()|!:,.;]*[-A-Za-z0-9+&@#\/%=~_()|]/ but this only works when www is present and doesn't work e.g. for http://example.com ...

  • A regex to match a substring that isn't followed by a certain other substring.

    - by Rayne
    I need a regex that will match blahfooblah but not blahfoobarblah I want it to match only foo and everything around foo, as long as it isn't followed by bar. I tried using this: foo.*(?<!bar) which is fairly close, but it matches blahfoobarblah. The negative look behind needs to match baranything and not just bar. The specific language I'm using is Clojure which uses Java regexes under the hood.

  • Save File Contents to Variable in Python3.3 [migrated]

    - by Neo_Programmer
    I have a Python3.3 script that seems to not work. The script will search for an XML pattern and then print the results to the screen. I am using Ubuntu 12.10 (AMD64) and python3.3. I prefer to use regex with XML, so please disregard this unconventional form of programming. #!/usr/bin/python3.3 import io, re openfile = open('./temp/xaiml/temp_db1.xaiml', 'r') TEMPDB = openfile.read() OUTPUT = print(''.join(re.findall('<cgy><prn>.*_.*<\/prn>.*<\/cgy>', TEMPDB, flags=re.I)))

  • Javascript regex returning true.. then false.. then true.. etc

    - by betamax
    I have a strange problem with the validation I am writing on a form. It is a 'Check Username' button next to an input. The input default value is the username for example 'betamax'. When I press 'Check Username' it passes the regex and sends the username to the server. The server behaves as expected and returns '2' to tell the javascript that they are submitting their own username. Then, when I click the button again, the regex fails. Nothing is sent to the server obviously because the regex has failed. If I press the button again, the regex passes and then the username is sent to the server. I literally cannot figure out what would be making it do this! It makes no sense to me! This is my code: $j("#username-search").click(checkUserName); function checkUserName() { var userName = $j("#username").val(); var invalidUserMsg = 'Invalid username (a-zA-Z0-9 _ - and not - or _ at beginning or end of string)'; var filter = /^[^-_]([a-z0-9-_]{4,20})[^-_]$/gi; if (filter.test(userName)) { console.log("Pass") $j.post( "/account/profile/username_check/", { q: userName }, function(data){ if(data == 0) { $j("#username-search-results").html("Error searching for username. Try again?"); } else if(data == 5) { $j("#username-search-results").html(invalidUserMsg); } else if(data == 4) { $j("#username-search-results").html("Username too short or too long."); } else if(data == 2) { $j("#username-search-results").html("This is already your username."); } else if(data == 3) { $j("#username-search-results").html("This username is taken."); } else if(data == 1){ $j("#username-search-results").html("This username is available!"); } }); } else { console.log("fail") $j("#username-search-results").html(invalidUserMsg); } return false; } The HTML: <input name="username" id="username" value="{{ user.username }}" /> <input type="button" value="Is it taken?" id="username-search"> <span id="username-search-results"></span>
