Hello, I have a text file. I want to extract all of the lines that are between two unique strings within the file. I've only been able to extract the text that's between two strings, on a single line.
The file format is below, as well as the regex task. The problem is that the regex only reads one line, I suspect due to my lack of understanding of the regex wildcarding regarding newline characters. Can anyone clear me up on this? <unwanted lines> fred red blue <wanted lines> Mary yellow brown <unwanted lines> <property name="infilename" value="D:\CI-TF-dev\tmp\dummy.txt"/> <loadfile file="${infilename}" property="fileContent" verbose="false"/> <regex pattern="^fred(?'outpp'.*)blue" input="${fileContent}"/> <echo message="output: ${outpp}"/> [echo] output: red THX Curt ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
