I have a regular expression for the Find and Replace window in Visual Studio

  • 0

I have a regular expression for the Find and Replace window in Visual Studio (2008), where I have a tagged group ({}). And now I need to reuse that same group later in the statement again. In the replace box you can use the \n (where n is a number from 1 to 9), but in the find box you can’t…

The tagged group is variable and contains expressions.

Example:

<{(:a*\:)*:a*}\>blablabla<\/{(:a*\:)*:a*}\>

The second {(:a*\:)*:a*} should only match the same match as the first one. So if a match with asp:Label in the first group succeeds, the second should only match when with it finds asp:Label again.

Anyone has a solution?
