Re: Re: Regex Strikes again!

Hmm.. i see.. your rigth!

But can i put this condition in while cicle!!? I guess not because in that case i could not catch multiline comments!! Because in this case the file would be read line by line! And i must read all the file at once! Don´t i?

Thank you again

Put which condition in which while cycle? There's no while in your code fragment. Which part of "what you are trying to do is to complex for a simple regexp" do you fail to understand? I've said this before, what you need is a parser, nor a regexp. For simple languages like Java, you can get away with a parser that's not a full-language parser. I told you this three weeks ago, but you still are on the regexp road, and have made remarkably little progress. Don't match - parse! Abigail	[reply]
