| Character |
Description |
| / |
Mark the next character as a special character, a literal character, or a backward reference, or an octal escape character. For example, 'n' matches the character "N ". '/N' matches a line break. The sequence '//' matches "/" and "/(" matches "(". |
| ^ |
Matches the start position of the input string. IfRegexpObjectMultilineAttribute, ^ matches the position after '/N' or'/R. |
| $ |
Matches the end position of the input string. IfRegexpObjectMultilineAttribute, $ also matches the position before '/N' or'/R. |
| * |
Matches the previous subexpression zero or multiple times. For example, Zo * can match "Z" and "Zoo ". * Is equivalent to {0 ,}. |
| + |
Match the previous subexpression once or multiple times. For example, 'Zo + 'can match "zo" and "Zoo", but cannot match "Z ". + Is equivalent to {1 ,}. |
| ? |
Match the previous subexpression zero or once. For example, "Do (ES )? "Can match" do "in" do "or" does ".? It is equivalent to {0, 1 }. |
| {N} |
NIs a non-negative integer. MatchedNTimes. For example, 'O {2} 'cannot match 'O' in "Bob", but can match two o in "food. |
| {N,} |
NIs a non-negative integer. At least matchNTimes. For example, 'O {2,} 'cannot match 'O' in "Bob", but can match all o in "foooood. 'O {1,} 'is equivalent to 'o + '. 'O {0,} 'is equivalent to 'o *'. |
| {N,M} |
MAndNAll are non-negative integers, whereN<=M. Least matchNTimes and most matchingMTimes. For example, "o {1, 3}" matches the first three o in "fooooood. 'O {0, 1} 'is equivalent to 'o? '. Note that there must be no space between a comma and two numbers. |
| ? |
When this character is followed by any other delimiter (*, + ,?, {N},{N,},{N,M}) The matching mode is not greedy. The non-Greedy mode matches as few searched strings as possible, while the default greedy mode matches as many searched strings as possible. For example, for strings "oooo", 'O ++? 'Will match a single "o", and 'O +' will match all 'O '. |
| . |
Matches any single character except "/n. To match any character including '/N', use a pattern like' [./n. |
| (Pattern) |
MatchPatternAnd obtain the matching. The obtained match can be obtained from the generated Matches set. It is used in VBScript.SubmatchesSet, which is used in JScript$0...$9Attribute. To match the parentheses, use '/(' or '/)'. |
| (? :Pattern) |
MatchPatternBut does not get the matching result, that is, this is a non-get match and is not stored for future use. This is useful when you use the "or" character (|) to combine each part of a pattern. For example, 'industr (? : Y | ies) is a simpler expression than 'industry | industries. |
| (? =Pattern) |
Forward pre-query, in any matchPatternTo start from the string. This is a non-get match, that is, the match does not need to be obtained for future use. For example, 'windows (? = 95 | 98 | NT | 2000) 'can match "Windows" in "Windows 2000", but cannot match "Windows" in "Windows 3.1 ". Pre-query does not consume characters, that is, after a match occurs, the next matching search starts immediately after the last match, instead of starting after the pre-query characters. |
| (?!Pattern) |
Negative pre-query, in any MismatchPatternTo start from the string. This is a non-get match, that is, the match does not need to be obtained for future use. For example, 'windows (?! 95 | 98 | NT | 2000) 'can match "Windows" in "Windows 3.1", but cannot match "Windows" in "Windows 2000 ". Pre-query does not consume characters. That is to say, after a match occurs, the next matching search starts immediately after the last match, instead of starting after the pre-query characters. |
| X|Y |
MatchXOrY. For example, 'z | food' can match "z" or "food ". '(Z | f) ood' matches "zood" or "food ". |
| [Xyz] |
Character Set combination. Match any character in it. For example, '[abc]' can match 'A' in "plain '. |
| [^Xyz] |
Negative value character set combination. Match any character not included. For example, '[^ abc]' can match 'p' in "plain '. |
| [A-z] |
Character range. Matches any character in the specified range. For example, '[a-z]' can match any lowercase letter in the range of 'A' to 'Z. |
| [^A-z] |
Negative character range. Matches any character that is not within the specified range. For example, '[^ a-z]' can match any character that is not in the range of 'A' to 'Z. |
| /B |
Match A Word boundary, that is, the position between a word and a space. For example, 'er/B 'can match 'er' in "never", but cannot match 'er 'in "verb '. |
| /B |
Match non-word boundary. 'Er/B 'can match 'er' in "verb", but cannot match 'er 'in "never '. |
| /CX |
MatchingXThe specified control character. For example,/cM matches a Control-M or carriage return character.XMust be a A-Z or one of a-z. Otherwise, c is treated as an original 'C' character. |
| /D |
Match a numeric character. It is equivalent to [0-9]. |
| /D |
Match a non-numeric character. It is equivalent to [^ 0-9]. |
| /F |
Match a form feed. It is equivalent to/x0c and/cL. |
| /N |
Match A linefeed. It is equivalent to/x0a and/cJ. |
| /R |
Match a carriage return. It is equivalent to/x0d and/cM. |
| /S |
Matches any blank characters, including spaces, tabs, and page breaks. It is equivalent to [/f/n/r/t/v]. |
| /S |
Match any non-blank characters. It is equivalent to [^/f/n/r/t/v]. |
| /T |
Match a tab. It is equivalent to/x09 and/cI. |
| /V |
Match a vertical tab. It is equivalent to/x0b and/cK. |
| /W |
Match any word characters that contain underscores. It is equivalent to '[A-Za-z0-9 _]'. |
| /W |
Match any non-word characters. It is equivalent to '[^ A-Za-z0-9 _]'. |
| /XN |
MatchN, WhereNIt is a hexadecimal escape value. The hexadecimal escape value must be determined by the length of two numbers. For example, '/x41' matches "". '/X041' is equivalent to '/x04' & "1 ". The regular expression can use ASCII encoding .. |
| /Num |
MatchNum, WhereNumIs a positive integer. References to the obtained matching. For example, '(.)/1' matches two consecutive identical characters. |
| /N |
Identifies an octal escape value or a backward reference. If/NAt leastNObtained subexpressionsNIs backward reference. Otherwise, ifNIs an octal digit (0-7 ),NIt is an octal escape value. |
| /Nm |
Identifies an octal escape value or a backward reference. If/NmAt leastNmTo obtain the subexpressionNmIs backward reference. If/NmAt leastNNIs followed by textM. If none of the preceding conditions are metNAndMAll are Octal numbers (0-7), then/NmMatch the octal escape ValueNm. |
| /Nml |
IfNIt is an octal digit (0-3) andMAndLIf the values are Octal numbers (0-7), the octal escape value is matched.Nml. |
| /UN |
MatchN, WhereNIt is a Unicode character represented by four hexadecimal numbers. For example,/u00a9 matches the copyright symbol (). |
