Regular expression for substitute a string with another





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}

I have this two lines of text, that I want to manipulate using Regular Expression and substitute:



Obj.FieldNameA = Reader.GetEnumFromInt32<ClassName>(QueryGenerator,nameof(Obj.));
Obj.FieldNameB=Reader.GetTrimmedStringOrNull(QueryGenerator,nameof(Obj.));


Attached on the first Obj. there is a Field name, so in this case they are FieldNameA,FieldNameB



I want to attach these values to the second Obj. found on the same line, so the text should become:



Obj.FieldNameA = Reader.GetEnumFromInt32<ClassName>(QueryGenerator,nameof(Obj.FieldNameA));
Obj.FieldNameB=Reader.GetTrimmedStringOrNull(QueryGenerator,nameof(Obj.FieldNameB));


I have tested this very simple (and wrong) regex:
Obj.(w*).*n



With substituition as $1



But I don't know how to use substitution...



Sample code here



Some Notes:

After FieldNameA there is always an equal sign that could be preceded or followed by a space.
Before the second Obj. there could be any character, including < ( etc...



Could this be achieved?

  • Try (Obj.(w+).*(Obj.)) => $1$2). Or even add ^ to the start of the regex to match at the start of a line/string. See demo

You may use



Find: (Obj.(w+).*(Obj.))
Replace: $1$2)



See the regex demo.



You may also add ^ to the start of the regex to match only at the start of a line/string.



Details





  • ^ - start of string


  • (Obj.(w+).*(Obj.) - Group 1 ($1 in the replacement):



    • Obj. - Obj. text


    • (w+) - Group 2 ($2): 1 or more word chars


    • .* - any 0+ chars other than line break chars as many as possible (you may use .*? to only match the second Obj. on a line, your current input only has two with the second one closer to the end of a line, so .* will work better)


    • (Obj. - (Obj. text




  • ) - a ) char.
