Regular Expression Functions

Hey Chris,

Do you by any chance have a plugin we can download for versions below 19.2? 

Regards

I double checked and it looks like 1.0 had all of it's logging in the markers function. I would still recommend updating the plugin as the newer versions are backward compatible with 1.0.

Thanks for you response.

It means that it was an existing issue. We are still using version 1.0.  Is there any specific function which creating more log output?

Hi bhupinders, 

Version 1.0 had a great deal of excess logging, most of which was removed in 2.0. The only remaining one after that that was the logging of a true or a false when using the insert markers function. As of the current release (2.1.1), that last item has been removed.

Thanks!

Hi,

Which version had this issue?

Hello! For that you should use regexmatch. Just put the pattern in the first argument and the string you want to check in the second argument. To duplicate that more closely just loop through the list.

Hello!

For this you'd probably just want to use the regexmatch function like this:

a!localVariables(
  local!ssns: {
    /*Valid SSNs*/
    "123-45-6789",
    "856-45-6789",
    /*Invalid SSNs*/
    "000-45-6789",
    "666-45-6789",
    "901-45-6789",
    "85-345-6789",
    "856-453-6789",
    "856-45-67891",
    "856-456789"
  },
  a!forEach(
    items: local!ssns,
    expression: regexmatch(
      "^(?!000|666)[0-8][0-9]{2}-(?!00)[0-9]{2}-(?!0000)[0-9]{4}$",
      fv!item
    )
  )
)

Output: 

true(Boolean)
true(Boolean)
false(Boolean)
false(Boolean)
false(Boolean)
false(Boolean)
false(Boolean)
false(Boolean)
false(Boolean)

Good day!  Just starting to learn your product, but how can I get this Java REGEX into your regex function to return a result?

List<String> ssns = new ArrayList<String>();
       
//Valid SSNs
ssns.add("123-45-6789");  
ssns.add("856-45-6789");  
 
//Invalid SSNs
ssns.add("000-45-6789");  
ssns.add("666-45-6789");  
ssns.add("901-45-6789");  
ssns.add("85-345-6789"); 
ssns.add("856-453-6789"); 
ssns.add("856-45-67891"); 
ssns.add("856-456789"); 
 
String regex = "^(?!000|666)[0-8][0-9]{2}-(?!00)[0-9]{2}-(?!0000)[0-9]{4}$";
 
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex);
 
for (String number : ssns)
{
    Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(number);
    System.out.println(matcher.matches());
}
 
Output:
 
true
true
 
false
false
false
false
false
false
false

• Removed superfluous log output

Thanks for all Chris!
