Question

I need to extract only the last row from a multi-line string using regular expressions. I am trying to use a SingleLine pattern like following @”\n(.*?)$” but, unfortunately it extracts the text starting with second line to end. Any hint?

Thanks!

Answer 1

What about something like

@"([^\n\r]*)$"

That means match everything that is not a newline character till the end of the string.

Well, when I think about it, when you don’t use the DOTALL modifier then this should be fine

@"(.*)$"

Without this modifier the . does not match newline characters. So no need for a \n at the beginning.
