Getting the regular expression from the given text

Hi
I need to develope an application which can convert the given text into the regular expression. I need that when i enter any text in textarea that should be translated into regular expression in another panel. but i could not find the method or technique which can do so. plz help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks Imran khan.

well, there are an infinite number of regular expressions for an arbitrary piece of text, so you will have to qualify in your mind what the purpose of the regular expression is.
For instance, it is trivial to create a regex for a string just by copying the input text, and inserting \ before any special characters. But this pattern would probably be quite silly.

What is the regular expression for the end of a story?

Forgive me if this is wrong forum for asking this, but I'm trying to use the Find command using GREP and I need to know the regular expression for the end of a story. (Or, the last character of a story.) Thanks in advance.

I'd try search for .\z (that's a dot in front) which ought to find the very last character in the story, and replace with $0 and your additional text.
You know you can use a keyboard shortcut to move your cursor to the end of any story, right? Ctrl + End on Windows, Cmd + End, I think, on Mac. Unless you want to do this to every single story in the document, I would think you might be just as well off to put your text on the clipboard, put the cursor in the story and hit the key combo followed by Ctrl/Cmd + V to paste.

ALC-FUT-001-007: Syntax error in the regular expression *. from File Utilities - Find in ES2

Has anyone encountered the above error when trying to use the Foundation - File Utilities service Find?
This is occuring in ES2, and I have tried using an asterisk, as well as the exact file name I know exists.
I have tried literals in the Process Properties, as well as passing it in via string variables.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Mark

Thanks for your response.
Here is what we have learned:
We should not put the regular expression value in single quotes - eliminates the error.
The problem is, the Find operation always returns an empty list no matter what criteria we enter - even C:\ with criteria = *.*
ES 2 is running on a Windows 2003 machine.
Thanks Again

How to get the meaning of the regular expression?

Hello All,
I want to know how to get the meaning of the regular expression?
The requirement is i need to get the regular expression for some of the attributes and if the value is not matching with that regular expression then i need to give the popup saying the limitation of the attribute. but i need to give the pop up with the user understanding format.
Like "please give a to z or 1 to 9" like that.
So is there any way Java will help me to get the meaning of the regular expression?
Thank You!
Arun S

I'm not aware of any such tool or library.
Also, it would be a terrible "explanation", because regular expressions (similar to other programming languages) have their own "style" of defining what to enter and that usually doesn't translate well into natural language.
For example the regex "[a-z][a-z0-9]*\s+[a-z0-9]+" could be translated as "a to z, followed by zero or more characters from a to z or 0 to 9 followed by any amount of whitespace followed by one or more characters from a to z or 0 to 9".
Or you could simply say "Please enter two alphanumeric words, the first one must not start with a number".
My suggestion: store/configure the human-readable description together with the regex. Don't try to automate it.

Dilimit the regular expression

How could I delimit the regular expression with the pound sign (#) and then use a single quote within the expression.
Can someone give some explamples.
As the regular expressions are enclosed within quotes, and I have a single quote in string also how would i be able to specify it by dilimiting the regular expression with a # sign.
Thanks

Hi,
Not sure I understand the issue you're facing, but I think using q quoting might help:
SQL> with t as (
2 select 'abcd ''1234''' str from dual)
3 -- end of sample data
4 select str, regexp_substr(str, q'#'1234'#') str from t;
STR STR
abcd '1234' '1234'The # symbol now encloses the string in the example above.
You can refer to the docs for more infor, in the link below:

Re: [iPlanet-JATO] Re: Use Of models in utility classes - Pease don't forget about the regular expression potential

Namburi,
When you said you used the Reg Exp tool, did you use it only as
preconfigured by the iMT migrate application wizard?
Because the default configuration of the regular expression tool will only
target the files in your ND project directories. If you wish to target
classes outside of the normal directory scope, you have to either modify the
"Source Directory" property OR create another instance of the regular
expression tool. See the "Tool" menu in the iMT to create additional tool
instances which can each be configured to target different sets of files
using different sets of rules.
Usually, I utilize 3 different sets of rules files on a given migration:
spider2jato.xml
these are the generic conversion rules (but includes the optimized rules for
ViewBean and Model based code, i.e. these rules do not utilize the
RequestManager since it is not needed for code running inside the ViewBean
or Model classes)
I run these rules against all files.
See the file download section of this forum for periodic updates to these
rules.
nonProjectFileRules.xml
these include rules that add the necessary
RequestManager.getRequestContext(). etc prefixes to many of the common
calls.
I run these rules against user module and any other classes that do not are
not ModuleServlet, ContainerView, or Model classes.
appXRules.xml
these rules include application specific changes that I discover while
working on the project. A common thing here is changing import statements
(since the migration tool moves ND project code into different jato
packaging structure, you sometime need to adjust imports in non-project
classes that previously imported ND project specific packages)
So you see, you are not limited to one set of rules at all. Just be careful
to keep track of your backups (the regexp tool provides several options in
its Expert Properties related to back up strategies).

Great response. By the way, the Regular Expression Tool uses thePerl5 RE
syntax as implemented by Apache OROMatcher. If you're doing lotsof these
sorts of migration changes manually, you should definitely buy theO'Reilly
book "Mastering Regular Expressions" and generate some rules toautomate the
conversion. Although they are definitely confusing at first,regular
expressions are fairly easy to understand with some documentation,and are
superbly effective at tackling this kind of migration task.

Please bear in mind that this statement is not totally correct:
Since the migration tool does not do much of conversion for
these
utilities we have to do manually.Remember, the iMT is a SUITE of tools. There is the extractiontool, and
the translation tool, and the regular expression tool, and severalother
smaller tools (like the jar and compilation tools). It is correctto state
that the extraction and translation tools only significantlyconvert the
primary ND project objects (the pages, the data objects, and theproject
classes). The extraction and translation tools do minimumtranslation of the
User Module objects (i.e. they repackage the user module classes inthe new
jato module packages). It is correct that for all other utilityclasses
which are not formally part of the ND project, the extraction and
translation tools do not perform any migration.
However, the regular expression tool can "migrate" any arbitrary
file
(utility classes etc) to the degree that the regular expressionrules
correlate to the code present in the arbitrary file. So first andforemost,
if you have alot of spider code in your non-project classes youshould
consider using the regular expression tool and if warranted adding
additional rules to reduce the amount of manual adjustments thatneed to be
made. I can stress this enough. We can even help you write theregular
expression rules if you simply identify the code pattern you wish to
convert. Just because there is not already a regular expressionrule to
match your need does not mean it can't be written. We have notnearly
exhausted the possibilities.
For example if you say, we need to convert
CSpider.getDataObject("X");
To
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(XModel.class);
Maybe we or somebody else in the list can help write that regularexpression if it has not already been written. For instance in thelast
updated spider2jato.xml file there is already aCSpider.getCommonPage("X")
rule:

<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getPage[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getPage[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[getViewBean($1ViewBean.class]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
Following this example a getDataObject to getModel would look
like this:
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getDataObject[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[CSpider[.\s]*getDataObject[\s]*\(\"([^"]*)\"]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[getModel($1Model.class]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
In fact, one migration developer already wrote that rule andsubmitted it
for inclusion in the basic set. I will post another upgrade to thebasic
regular expression rule set, look for a "file uploaded" posting.Also,
please consider contributing any additional generic rules that youhave
written for inclusion in the basic set.
Please not, that in some cases (Utility classes in particular)
the rule
application may be more effective as TWO sequention rules ratherthan one
monolithic rule. Again using the example above, it will convert
CSpider.getDataObject("Foo");
To
getModel(FooModel.class);
Now that is the most effective conversion for that code if that
code is in
a page or data object class file. But if that code is in a Utilityclass you
really want:
>
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(FooModel.class
So to go from
getModel(FooModel.class);
To
RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(FooModel.class
You would apply a second rule AND you would ONLY run this rule
against
your utility classes so that you would not otherwise affect yourViewBean
and Model classes which are completely fine with the simplegetModel call.
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[getModel$]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[getModel\(]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[RequestManager.getRequestContext().getModelManager().getModel(]]>
</mapping-rule-substitute>
</mapping-rule-replacement>
</mapping-rule>
A similer rule can be applied to getSession and other CSpider APIcalls.
For instance here is the rule for converting getSession calls toleverage
the RequestManager.
<mapping-rule>
<mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<![CDATA[getSession\($\.]]>
</mapping-rule-primarymatch>
<mapping-rule-replacement>
<mapping-rule-match>
<![CDATA[getSession\.]]>
</mapping-rule-match>
<mapping-rule-substitute>
<![CDATA[RequestManager.getSession().]]>

How to get the query values from the url in a servlet and pass them to jsp

ok..this is the situation...
all applications are routed through a login page...
so if we have a url like www.abc.com/appA/login?param1=A&param2=B , the query string must be passed onto a servlet(which is invoked before the login page is displayed)..the servlet must process the query string and then should pass all those values(as hidden values) to the login jsp..then user enters username and pswd, then there should be another servlet which takes all the hidden values of jsp and also username and pswd, authenticates the user and sends the control back to that particular application along with the hidden values...
so i need help on how to parse the query string from the original url in the servlet, pass it out to jsp, and then pass it back to the servlet and back to the original application...damnn...any help would be greatly appreciated...thanks

Getting a field value from the first page on the second page in HTML

On the initialize of the second page I try to get the value of the USERID field from the first page and create a SQL statement to open my data connection. The issue I have is that I cannot get the value of the USERID field. This code works cause if I hardcode a valid value the query works. I tried to work around this by putting the same field on page 2, but it still did not work but the field was populated with displayed. I only assume the data is not populated at the time the initialize is invoked.
Here is my code on the initialize..
xfa.sourceSet.nodes.item(0).resolveNode("#command.query").commandType = "text"
xfa.sourceSet.nodes.item(0).resolveNode("#command.query").select.nodes.item(0).value = "Select * from TABLE where userid = '" + xfa.form.resolveNode("form1.Page1.txt_EmployeeLogin").rawValue + "'"

Any help is greatly appreciated.

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store notice. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
In the Finder, press the key combination command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Test.

Is there a Siri command to get to the home screen from the lock screen?

Here is the situation - an elderly friend of mine (94 years old) was in a panic because there were text messages on the lock screen and try as he might he could not "slide to open."
He has no passcode set.
Anyway, I had him try this and it worked:
1. Use Siri to "open calendar."
2. After it opened, press the Home button to get to the home screen.
That way he was able to get in.
Is there a Siri command to go directly to the Home Screen from the lock screen? I tried various things I could think of, but couldn't figure out anything that worked.
What would be best is being able to bypass the lock screen altogether. I have another elderly friend who is blind and it is a source of constant confusion for him.
As for voiceover - he is finding it impossible to figure out. I can see, and I am also finding it impossible to figure out. We tried to use it to get into the TED app and select, play and stop videos and all sorts of weird UI elements starting popping up and it was frustrating him so we turned voiceover off. But that's for another discussion thread.
In the meantime, is there an easy way to get home if somebody is having trouble sliding?
Thanks,

Yes, that can sometimes be true.
Unless your older but sighted friend has difficulty with fine motor movements, I suspect that the slide to open is a matter of practice. If you can convice your friend that they are capable of learning it and get them to work with it a bit that might help. I've found that older learners can become frustrated very quickly with technology. They either have themselves convinced they can't learn technolgy or that get annoyed because iPhones are supposed to be "intuative". The challenge is getting them to feel okay about being a beginner at something.
You're a good friend to take on this teaching task.
Best of luck.

The Regular Expressions and GUID.

Hello gurus, I hope you can help me!
I am needing to select GUIDS from a table and for this, I need the Regular Expression. My
Perl is not good and not good Regular Expression. My database is Oralce 11.2.0.2.0 and
the Operating System of the Machine is Linux (Oracle Version 6). If you require the further information,
I will watch closely. Thank you. Jehangir.

Hi Jehangir and welcome to the forums.
I am needing to select GUIDS from a table and for this,Well, the first thing you should do is read the forum FAQ and also the post by BluShadow
at the top of the posts on the forum home page. You should have provided code (DDL
and DML) showing your particular problem, but since this is your first time, I'll be gentle ;)
We have done this - sometimes clients have GUIDs as PKs and we need to send data to
their systems, but it isn't as simple as it may first appear.
GUIDs can come in three formats.
The Oracle one - SELECT Sys_GUID() from DUAL which is just a string of 32 Hexadecimal characters.
Then the string with hyphens and then the string with hypens and {} at beginning and end (see
sample data).
with datax as
SELECT '79A864CCD8E44CD8B0A2765DF9EF337B' as guid FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT '79A864CFD8E44CD7B0A2765DF9EF337B' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT '8gdfsgsgfdg' FROM DUAL UNION ALL -- dummy for testing
SELECT '21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT '21EC5550-3AEA-1069-A2FF-08002B30309D' FROM DUAL UNION All
SELECT '{21CC2020-3AFA-1A69-A2DD-08002B30309D}' FROM DUAL
-- first one is the Oracle format
select * from datax where regexp_like(guid, '[0-9a-fA-F]{32}'); -- Oracle select sys_guid();
-- second one is with hyphens
select * from datax where regexp_like(guid, '[0-9a-fA-F]{8}\-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}\-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}\-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}\-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}');
-- third one is with hyphens and curly brackets.
select * from datax where regexp_like(guid, '^\{[0-9a-fA-F]{8}\-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}\-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}\-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}\-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}\}$');
-- This converts both of the last two formats back into Oracle format, which is what
-- we use. Notice, that I haven't used regualar expressions to do this. Regexes are
-- computationally expensive, and you should use Oracle's string furnctions if possible
SELECT REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(GUID, '{', ''), '}', ''), '-', '') FROM Datax;HTH,

Getting a document file from the transcribed audio file

I would like to know how to get a "document" file from the transcribed files created by Soundbooth. The files created by SB have 'xml' or 'xmp' extensions and I do not know what to do with these files or how to "read" them.
I am on a macbook pro MAC OS 10.5.5. I have latest versions of Word, and Final Cut Pro.
Any help would be appreciated. This is my first foray into the world of Adobe products.
Thanks,
Eric

The Transcript XML files conform to the XML Standards, and are a "marked up" text document containing several pieces of information. You can open the file in TextEdit (on Mac) or Notepad (on Windows) and you should be able to see what sorts of metadata is saved for each word in the transcription. Each transcribed word is stored in a data block, along with its timestamp, the duration of the spoken word, and some other metadata. This information is invaluable when importing the file into other applications or databases.
Neither Soundbooth nor Premiere Pro support exporting the transcript without the additional metadata or XML tags right now, but since it's a basic text file, it should be a very simple chore for a script to parse that file and write out each transcribed word to a new file.

Mining for regular expressions from text

Hi all
I have a situation where I need to develop a set of regular expressions from lists.
I have lists of files uploaded and downloaded, and when the event happened. I need to analyze these and boil them down to a set of regular expressions.
The regular expressions will be used in the future to check the logs for activities. For example:
foo*.zip is downloaded every night. Has it been downloaded tonight.
I am looking for help in analyzing the lists of files and deriving regular expressions to describe them.
Any ideas?
Thanks all

Hello all, I have need to learn the regular expression for teh Oracle database. Can
anyones tell to me where I find the informations - good sites that give the secrets ;)
I have already look but would like some advices. Nóra

I have already look but would like some advices. NóraHi Nóra,
I have been looking at this recently myself and I have a few
sites bookmarked. Enjoy the intricacies of regexen - with any
luck, you won't even have to learn any PL/SQL ;)
Good introdution

Not forgetting the Wiki (contains table with vi
equivalents - for those of us who use a real editor ;)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression
This site should be one of your main ports of call for any Oracle issues.
Good forums also - better software than Oracle themselves.
