Passing regex match to a script function
In a Replace Files step, I need to pass the result of a regex match. Basically, I need to match a filename in a file using the following regex:
Code:
^.*"OutputFilename"\s*=\s*"(.*)".*$ Code:
[GetFileNamePart($1)] |
Unfortunately you can't do exactly what you are wanting (pass a matched expression to script), but you can accomplish what you are trying to do with just a regular expression.
Below is an example Replace In File step that uses a different regular expression that does what I think you are trying to do. Note: Please note that using .* is not a very safe thing to do with regular expressions in Visual Build Pro because it doesn't function in a 'line mode'. .* is greedy in Visual Build Pro which can consume line feeds. The sample regular expression above adheres to the advice in the help file for Replace In File Action using [^\n]* instead of .*. Note 2: Just copy the above xml fragment and paste into Visual Build Pro. A Replace In File step will be created for you to review/use. |
