Need regular expression to test
Posted on 2012-03-12
I need a regular expression that will match on the following conditions:
1. Needs to match any string that contains “Application1 myCompany M117 Corp_LA”
2. Needs to match any string that contains “Application2 myCompany M117 Corp_LA”
3. Needs to match any string that contains “Application3 myCompany M117 Corp_LA”
4. Needs to match any string that starts with an underscore. For example _app1 or _app_2, but NOT app_3
I’ve tried:
(Application1 myCompany M117|Application2 myCompany M117 Corp_LA|Application3 myCompany M117 Corp_LA)|^(_.*)
This seems to work in an online regex tester, but doesn’t work in the actual application.

It is actually a home grown internal application......but the app is using boost RegEx
Application[1-3] myCompany M117 Corp_LA|^_.*
Activate multi-line mode and remember that spacing matters.

Lacking a multi-line mode you might also try
Application[1-3] myCompany M117 Corp_LA|\n_.*
OR
Application[1-3] myCompany M117 Corp_LA|\r_.*
Application[1-3] myCompany M117 Corp_LA|\n_.*
OR
Application[1-3] myCompany M117 Corp_LA|\r_.*

You may want to adjust your last offering since it wouldn't account for the first line starting with an underscore ; )

@kaufmed - Excellent point!
I had my eye on those cases where multi-line mode might be necessary and not available, but clearly the unique first-line case can be addressed by appending the original |^_.* as in:
Application[1-3] myCompany M117 Corp_LA|\r_.*|^_.*
