Hello;
it's me again.
i tought everything was fine but then i saw strange problem with my
propertyregexp usage.
my snippet is:
<propertyregex property="some.name" override="true" input="${some.input}" regexp="([0-9A-Z\/\.a-z]+)"
replace="${some.dir}\1" global="true"/>
some.dir being an absolute windows directory: c:\foo\bar\dude
some.input being a relative directory= /some/other/directory
when i run this i get as a result:
C\:foobardude/some/other/directory
with allthe "\" removed from some.dir.
Any clue?
(i tried to add the backslach in regexp but it does not change anything...)

no because the line does not start with a blank.

i have solved my problem(see my previous mail) with regexp="([0-9A-Z\/\.a-z]+)"
replace="myPrefix\1"

Hi,
You could try to replace the blank character by ' myPrefix' (not the
blank before myPrefix).
<propertyregex property="regexp.name"
input="Foo Bar Blah Blah"
regexp=" "
replace=" myPrefix"
global="true"
casesensitive="false" />

thanks Ahmed it works for the sample string i provided.
My question is how can you avoid special characters e.g instead of Foo Bar
blabla , you have:
input string=foo/bar.ext foo/some1.ext.
The goal is to match the tokens separated by blank space and not words.
Thanks for any help!

Here's a code snippet that does what you'd like to do with
<propertyregexp>.
<propertyregex property="regexp.name"
input="Foo Bar Blah Blah"
regexp="([A-Za-z]+)"
replace="myPrefix\1"
global="true"
casesensitive="false" />
The result is:
[echo] Regular expression is: myPrefixFoo myPrefixFoo myPrefixFoo
myPrefixFoo

Do you mean:
<propertyregexp property="testprefix" regexp="\w*" replace="myPrefix"/>
But then all the words would be replaced by the prefix , no?
Forgive me i ama beginner in regular expressions:)

Hello guys;
I would like some help for the following.
Using <propertyregexp> how would you perform the following:
input string="Foo Bar Jeff Blabla"
replacing prefix="myPrefix"
result string="myPrefixFoo myPrefixBar myPrefixJeff myPrefixBlabla"
\w* should match every word or u could use the ^ method.
I normally use something like this to match words
/\b([A-Za-z]+)\b
