正则表达式，匹配php（\\ r | \\ n |。）中的任何内容*

Question

I have a massive string containing various segments of text. Part of the way through these strings there are two equals signs ' == '.

I want to match ' {{Description ' if it is after there equals signs.

The way I had planned it was '/==(\\r|\\n|.)*\\{\\{Description/i'

But this causes a SEGFAULT when running the regex.

How else can I build a regex to match the above without having (\\r|\\n|.)* ?

Answer 1

Just .* will work if you add the s modifier. Also, { has a special meaning (introduces a numeric quantifier) so it should be escaped. Finally, * should probably be made lazy, otherwise it will look for the LAST appearance of {{Description

/==.*?\{\{Description/is
