Regular Expressions Tester

May 12th, 2007

Here’s a simple app I wrote to test regular expressions. Regular expressions are a handy way to do complex parsing of strings but testing expressions can be tedious. I put together this little program to experiment with them before I put them into an application.

This sample application is limited to simple replacements, which is what I use most often on simple strings. For more complex operations, you should use the Match function in a loop. The application also contains an example of how to bind application settings to text boxes.
