I have an sql querying tool that is written in Haxe and im trying to add some sql comment support to the code. Currently if a user has any comments (single line or multi line) the query fails on the server side. Thus, im trying to write a simple method that takes the sql the user inputs and replaces any comments with a "". Here is method
static function removeComments(snippet: SqlSnippet): SqlSnippet {
var rComment: EReg = ~/(--[^\n]*)|(/\*[\w\W]*?(?=\*/)\*/)/;
var resultSql = rComment.replace(snippet.sql, "");
snippet.sql = resultSql;
return snippet;
}
My issue isnt with this method, but that neko wont compile it. When i try to compile this method i get this message:
src/skyview/SqlSnippetParser.hx:30: character 33 : Invalid character '\\' [Finished in 0.2s with exit code 1]
the '\\' this message is refering to is the '\\' im trying to use to escape the '*' metacharacter at the beginning of the 2nd set of "()"
Does anyone know why nako wont compile the "/*" in this EReg?
The problem is not \\*
. It is /
needs to be escaped.
Try changing your EReg to ~/(--[^\\n]*)|(\\/\\*[\\w\\W]*?(?=\\*\\/)\\*\\/)/
