Weird stringlist problem
|
Trying to match a stringlist in a regular expression... I'm apparently doing something wrong, but can't figure out what I am doing wrong...
| Code: |
#va tempvar {a|b|c|d}
#trigger {({@tempvar})$} {#say match} |
That works just fine. But then I've tried everything I can think of.. using zmud's conversion button, as well as:
| Code: |
#regex {(?:@tempvar)}
#regex {(@tempvar)}
#regex {((?:@tempvar))}
#regex {(?:(@tempvar))} |
and so on, and none of them will match. My guess is that I am breaking a procedural rule rather than incorrect syntax... anyone know what I am doing wrong?
Thanks a lot :) |

Didn't work, just did things like change my prompt to:
<HP: 13 (?)/130>0 {#addkey _SubsConfig Sanc Yes} |

| Code: |
#REGEX {\b(@tempvar)\b} {#say Matched %1}
#REGEX {\b(?:@tempvar)\b} {#say Matched} |
The first captures the value of the word and the second just matches without capturing. You shouldn't need the \b around it if you don't want to capture only whole words (i.e., you want sub-string matches). |

#VA v_b0 {a|b|c|d}
#TR {^(@{v_b0}) (.*)$} {#WIN debug b0 %2} "" {regex}
works for me, theres 'feature' in regex implementation, it wont take var names starting with _...
rephrase: so any sort of (?_varname:expression) will fail |
