[v2] Obscure unmatched parantheses in While-Loop
Posted: 16 Nov 2017, 06:30
Hi there,
I'm trying to iterate over all matches within a string using RegExMatch within a While-Loop:
Running this code with AHK 1.1.26.01 everything is OK - running the same code (except the modification for MsgBox) with AHK 2.0.a081 this leds to an error:
Where does the unmatched parantheses error come from?
I'm trying to iterate over all matches within a string using RegExMatch within a While-Loop:
Code: Select all
FoundPos := 1
len := 0
str := "aaaa aabb bbbb bbcc cccc ccbb bbbb bbaa aaaa"
pattern := "O)b{4}"
While (FoundPos := RegExMatch(str, pattern, Match, FoundPos + len))
{
MsgBox(Match[0]) ; for AHK V1 use: MsgBox % Match[0])
len := Match.len(0)
}
Code: Select all
