RegExReplace

The function RegExReplace looks for a match to the pattern specified by ARegExpr in the string AInputStr, and replaces it with the string specified by AReplaceStr.

Where the pattern matches and a successful replacement has been made, a boolean True value will be returned indicating that the string AInputStr has been amended as specified. Where a replacement was not successfully achieved, then a False will be returned.

Declaration: Function RegExReplace( const ARegExpr, AInputStr, AReplaceStr : string) : boolean;

Examples follow.

procedure ScriptEvent(var Value:Variant);
var
  Str1, Str2, Str3 : string;
begin
  Str1 := 'o';
  Str2 := 'scotties';
  Str3 := 'i'
  
  //Returns True (successful)
  If RegExReplace(Str1,Str2, Str3) then
     LogInfo('Replacement successful!')
  else
    LogInfo('No, the replacement did not work . . . ');
 
  If RegExReplace('a','banana','e') then
    LogInfo('Replacement successful!')
  else
    LogInfo('No, the replacement did not work . . . ');
 
  //Returns false (unsuccessful)
  Str1 := '7';
  If RegExReplace(Str1,Str2,'y') then
    LogInfo('Replacement successful!')
  else
    LogInfo('No, the replacement did not work . . . ');
 
end;
