Why is it that neither the original regex static regex reg2("File: ([^ ]+).*"); nor my space-friendly version static regex reg2("File: ([^\\.]+\\.+[^ ]+).*"); finds one of the following two lines:File: 0_home_juergen_test_New_Folder_hsa_bh.jpg Graphic file (type jpg) File: /home/juergen/test/New Folder/hsa bh.jpg Graphic file (type jpg)
Your second regex can be wrong since . is allowed in path, at least under linux. I do not know why it can not parse your two examples though. Your committed version seems to be fine but why is the + after \\.? Are you allowing multiple .? I would do .+\\.\w+ (not tested). Bo
