Question

I am trying to parse this string:

:p0 = ‘R’ [Type: String (0)], :p1 = ‘Y’
[Type: String (0)], :p2 = ‘HBP00’ [Type: String (0)], :p3 = ‘MAG.PF’

and I’ve come up with this expression which works quite well for me:

:p\d*\b\s=\s'\w{1,}'

Basically I am trying to match all the parameters and the values:

• :p0 = ‘R’
• :p1 = ‘Y’
• :p2 = ‘HBP00’
• :p3 = ‘MAG.PF’

but I’ve noticed the expression doesn’t work on :p3 cause of the dot, I reckon.
I don’t seem to be able to find a way to get all the text contained in single quotes.

Thanks for your help.

UPDATE:

I’ve mixed some information I got here and the one which works for me seems to be:

:p\d*\s=\s'[^']+'

I don’t know c# regex syntax very well, but you should either

• include the “.” character (something like :p\d*\b\s=\s'[\w\.]+') or,
• accept any character excluded single quotes (something like
  :p\d*\b\s=\s'[^']+')
