Regular Expression error messages

Is there any possibility to generate a readable error message after an failed match of regex pattern, to indeicate the index of the first character caused the non matching patter, something like this
"Character 5 must be a figit".
or is this not even possible to implement for regualr expressions?Thanks
Karim

The interface java.util.regex.MatchResult (new in Java 5) has methods that provide this information:
"This interface contains query methods used to determine the results of a match against a regular expression. The match boundaries, groups and group boundaries can be seen but not modified through a MatchResult"
You can then throw your own error using the information. The end() method, specifically, will provide the information you want.

  • Airport express error message

    Trying to add Airport Express to extend Airport Extreme. Can not open Express in Utilities --error message: -6753 "an error occured while trying to access the wireless device..." What does that error message indicate?

  • Regular Expressions Error -4702

    In the attached vi, I'm trying to accept only numbers and letters.  When I hit the Shift key, I get error -4702.  How can I correct this situation?
    I haven't worked this in yet, but I would also like to accept the Enter key so that the vi will terminate either Enter or the OK button.
    Also, in the Event structure, what's the difference between "Key Down" and "Key Down?" ?
    Thanks in advance.

    Why don't you use "lexical class"? Seems easier (accept for class 3-5).

    Wire the "VKey" output to a case structure, right-click ...create case for every value. Pick the cases you want and add your code, make one case default, then right-click...delete empty cases.

    Events with a question mark are filtering events. They allow you to discard events. Check the help. Events without question mark are plain events and don't have the discard terminal on the right.

    Hi. Welcome to the forums.
    What anti virus product do you have ? Is it AVG ?
    There is an option on outgoing mail in AVG to scan emails - turn that off.

  • ORA-00936:missing expression Error

    I have what I would think was a simple SQL for Excel; but for some reason I keep getting the ORA-00936 missing expression error message.
    The SELECT AND FROM of the SQL are no problem. It's the Where portion of the SQL statement where it messes up. I have many user input required parameters. But I tested out the same SQL statement in Toad for Oracle and it worked fine.
    I'm wondering at this point if it's just too much for Excel.
    Here's the code from the "Where" portion of the SQL that worked in Toad for Oracle. I believe I have to change some of the syntax to get it to work in Excel; and I'm wondering if anyone knows the true correct way to do this. Because I'm also wondering if that's where I'm going wrong.
    Anyway, here's the code:

  • ORA-00936 Missing expression - error in composite statement

    I'm using the following statement to call a function which uses a number retrieved from a table i.e.
    SELECT GETNEXTBUSINESSDATE(TO_DATE('28/08/2003','dd/mm/yyyy'), TO_NUMBER(SELECT VALUE1 FROM PARAMETERS WHERE PARCODE = 'CCR1' AND ATTRIBUTE1 = 'CCRNRQST1')) FROM DUAL;
    The function adds the value store in the value1 field to a date to get the next buisness date. The above statement is giving me an ORA-00936 Missing expression error message.
    Can anybody help ?

    We can't pass a query as a parameter.
    You'll have to write a function that accepts PARCODE and ATTRIBUTE1 as parameters, or figure some other way of getting the value.
    As I typed that, it occurred to me that this might work:
    SELECT GETNEXTBUSINESSDATE(TO_DATE('28/08/2003','dd/mm/yyyy')

  • Find text Between tags with a Regular Expression

    I am trying to find specif text -- table names - within a
    <cfquery> tag in all my cfm files. I am using an extend find
    function in Homesite (I think Dreamweaver has the same
    functionality). This expression works:
    <[Cc][fF][qQ][uU][eE][rR][Yy]
    [^>]*>[^>]*(EventName|AttendeeName)[^>]*</[Cc][fF][qQ][uU][eE][rR][Yy]>
    for find the text EventName or AttendeeName. However, if
    there are other cf tags like <cfif> within the
    <cfquery>, then the tag/text is not found.
    Can anyone help? It is a useful expression to have if you are
    trying to transfer applications developed on a windows machine to
    a, say, linux machine, and have table name sensititvity issues with
    mySql.

    Can't help you there. Sounds like HS's regex processor is
    bung: there's
    nothing non-standard or tricky about that regex (which might
    cause
    compatibility issues; JS vs PERL vs Java, etc).
    HS on the whole is bung (IMO). Have you considered using a
    text editor
    that is... err... *current*? ;-)
    No, can you suggest one. Just use HS for years and it does
    most of what I want.
    What sort of errors is it giving?
    Regular expression error No 17. Bad expression format or
    internal error.

    Have you seen this:

  • Inline display of error message for a regular expression validation

    Hi All,
    I am using ApexLib in my application.
    I am using regular expression validation for some of the items.
    Those validation will happen when the button is pressed and the message will be displayed as per the error.
    But, I want the errors to be displayed immediately when the focus is away from that item.
    as we do for required items.
    could anybody help me to achieve it?
    Thanks in advance
    bye
    Srikavi

    Hi Srikavi,
    to achieve a Validation of an item when leaving the field you'll have to use some javascript code (as ApexLib does internally).
    What do you need:
    - onChange - Event on your Item
    - some Javascript code which is called in the onChange Event (you can put this code either in your page html header or, if it is used more often in your application, in a seperate js File)
    - call the ApexLib method apexlib.error.showError to display your error
    I actually never tried it myself, but i'm pretty sure that this will work (according to what i've seen in the ApexLib code).
    Have fun and tell us how it went,
    Peter

    http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=154094
    Actually it was reported many times:
    http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=151921
    It suggests a few workarounds.
    Workaround 1:
    "Simple workaround is to disable registration using command line option -J-Dnb.registration.enabled=false"
    Workaround 2:
    "The file ~/.netbeans-registration/6.5/registration.xml is empty, so I have this file erased and restarted the IDE.
    After this step, the file was not regenerated, but the IDe starts now without this problem."
    Please, try one of them.

  • Error message when I open Logic Express 7

    Hi!
    When I opened Logic Express 7 today, I got an error message, telling me that Logic had problem with the file com.apple.logic.express.cs.
    I then searced the net and found out that the problem could be solved if I deleted that file, so I tried that (I didn´t deleted it, but just removed it to the trash, so I could replace it back if Logic wasn´t fixed with the file removed). And Logic was still not working. No sound when I tried to play back my songs or when I tried to play with the audio instruments. So now I have just replaced back the com.apple.logic.express.cs file, since that did not seemed to be the problem.
    I also tried to remove the com.apple.logic.SetUpAssistant.standard.plst file, but that did not seem to help either.
    Have anyone here experienced the same problem?
    PS. Why is the solution to remove those files to get it work, when they are ment to be there in the first place?
    Best from Asle
    Composer/guitarist from Norway

    Hi!
    Thank you for the answer!
    Will all the songs I have made in Logic be safe and still be 100 % as before if I reinstall Logic?
