偷偷摸摸的反斜杠的情况-Regex

Question

I'm missing something very obvious here, but I just cant see it.

I've got:

string input = @"999\abc.txt";
string pattern = @"\\(.*)";
string output = Regex.Match(input,pattern).ToString();
Console.WriteLine(output);

My result is:

\abc.txt

I don't want the slash and cant figure out why it's sneaking into the output. I tried flipping the pattern, and the slash winds up in the output again:

string pattern = @"^(.*)\\";

and get:

999\

Strange. The result is fine in Osherove's Regulator. Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Answer 1

The Match is the entire match; you want the first group;

string output = Regex.Match(input,pattern).Groups[1].Value;

(from memory; may vary slightly)

Answer 2

使用网上论坛仅获取网上论坛 ，而不是整个比赛：

string output = Regex.Match(input, pattern).Groups[1].Value;

Answer 3

You need to look at the results in Groups , not the entire matched text.

Answer 4

As an alternative to Marc's answer, you can use a zero-width positive lookbehind assertion in your pattern :

string pattern = @"(?<=\\)(.*)";

This will match "\\" but exclude it from the capture

Answer 5

You could try the match prefix/postfix but exclude options.

Match everything after the first slash /

(?<=\\)(.*)$

Match everything after the last slash /

(?<=\\)([^\\]*)$

Match everything before the last slash /

^(.*)(?=\\)

BTW, download Expresso for testing regular expressions, total life-saver.
