How can I match the domain part only of a URI with regular expressions? I see lots of examples but the mutch the subdomain too. What I am looking to do is to capture only the domain. So, for example [URL] should match only google. As a secondary question, I am looking to implement this on a VB.NET program. Would there be some other way to do it without regular expressions?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to validate a csv file of domain names (eg. @google.com, @xyz.co.uk, @xyz.edu etc.) I am using the following Regular Expression:
Regex(@"@(?:[a-zA-Z0-9-]+.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$", RegexOptions.Compiled);
Is there scope for improvement on the above?

I am pretty good with perl regular expressions but evidently I am at a loss on why this doesn't work.The code below stores "Person Test" in output variable.
im output As String
Dim userName As String = "Test, Person"
Dim re As New Regex("(w+),s(w+)", RegexOptions.Singleline)
output = re.Replace(userName, "$2 $1")
So why doesn't the following code store "#Test##Person#" in output variable.
Dim output As String
Dim userName As String = "Test, Person"
Dim re As New Regex("(w+),s(w+)")
For Each Match As Match In re.Matches(userName)
output &= "#" & Match.ToString & "#"

I am trying to write a regular expression string match in vb.net. The condition that I am trying to implement is that the string should contain only alphabets and must contain atleast one letter of both lower and upper case. i.e AAA-fail, aaa-fail, aAaA-pass.
The regular expression that I have come up with is ^(([a-z]+[A-Z]+)+|([A-Z]+[a-z]+)+)$

I'm trying to use regular expressions to find a matching model within the game. This part works perfectly! The only problem is that if it finds more than one match it'll try to place all matches it finds which I don't want it to do. Anyone more advanced in Regex can they tell me how to use regular expressions to only show one match or the first match it finds?
If Messege.ToLower.StartsWith("^place model") Then
Dim Regex As String = Messege.Remove(0, 13)
Dim R As New Regex(String.Format(".*{0}.*", Regex))

Is it possible to write an SQL statement for MySQL which finds all rows which match a specific arrangement of letters/numbers without using REGEXP? i.e. SELECT myCol FROM myTable WHERE myCol='{number}{number}{letter}'Should return 12X and 34Y but not 123X or 34YY..SQL match on letter and number arrangement). The difference is that I have discovered that I cannot use regular expressions with the ADO.Net driver I am using. Whatsmore, I cannot update it since I am using Visual Studio 2003 which is not compatible with later versions.]

Maybe I am over-optimising this, but I want to know if this can be made more efficient?
It is a little like a search and replace, I want to replace any string that contains any substring in parentheses with the same string but the words in parentheses colored RED: Eg
Take this text in TextBox1:
"The Prime Minister (that idiot from Scotland) made a speech today"
and convert to this text in RichTextBox1:
"The Prime Minister (that idiot from Scotland) made a speech today"
I had a regular expression which parses out value.

I want to extract a URL value from an INI File as such:
[DEFAULT]
BASEURL=http://www.stackoverflow.com/
[InternetShortcut]
URL=http://www.stackoverflow.com/
So I can get the URL value as the only Match from the Regular expression - but I don't understand enough about them (yet) to do this. I have seen RegEx examples that will parse any INI file and get the Name, Value Pairs I just want to get the URL value only from a file no matter what else it contains. My aim is to have something like this:
Dim _pattern As New Text.RegularExpressions.Regex("RegEx")
Dim _url As String = _pattern.Match(iniContentString).Value
It seems simple but I cannot seem to create a specific case RegEx where I want everything from "URL=" to the vbCrLf at the End to be my "Match". I have refered to Regular-Expressions.info which has been a help before but still cannot get this simple example to work.
have a regular expression in .NET, which will allow only 24 hr time format in the textbox.
