Just complaining... As a perl hacker in the AS3 world, I make heavy use of RegEx... It would be nice if Adobe would supply alternative delimeters for strings other than single & double quotes (for example when your string contains double and single quotes, and its too much trouble to escape every quote - if that's even possible, which I can't recall at the moment), and alternative delimeters for RegExp other than //. It would make for a lot more readable code...
var pattern : RegExp = /\/\/.*?\//gis; //yes it comes up often On top of that, Eclipse seems to get easily confused with its color coding when it comes to RegEx... /.../ and everything in between starts out red, but as you add to the expression it goes into color limbo land, changing colors on the pattern with no seeming logic. And how the heck do you use a variable in a AS3 regex? Complaints aside, hey I flipped out when they introduced RegEx support in AS3. \;) -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
