The desired atom is before the line break. This I expect to match as it does with pcregrep, sed, grep and perl. [nwat...@unxxhd01 inputs]$ cat regcmp.cf ###################### body common control { bundlesequence => { "test" }; } bundle common agent { classes: "all" expression => "any"; } bundle agent test { vars: "reg" string => "OpenSSH"; "str1" string => "SSH-OpenSSH-4.3"; "str2" string => "SSH-OpenSSH-4.3 newline"; classes: "port1" expression => regcmp(".*${reg}.*","${str1}"); "port2" expression => regcmp(".*${reg}.*","${str2}"); # Both should match reports: port1:: "Port1 match!"; !port1:: "No port1 match!"; port2:: "Port2 match!"; !port2:: "No port2 match!"; } [nwat...@unxxhd01 inputs]$ ~/src/cfengine-3.0.3/src/cf-agent -Kf ./regcmp.cf R: Port1 match! R: No port2 match! As a wish list item I wish that CF's regular expressions were more like PCRE than they are. CF does use PCRE but it is more of a dialect. Having to add '.*' and extra escapes (e.g \\s intead of \s) requires one to learn another regex flavour. Sincerely, -- Neil Watson 416-673-3465
