%match not always matching
|
| Code: |
<alias name="yo" id="62">
<value>#LOCAL $yo
#IF (%match( "hi", "hi", $yo)) {
#IF ($yo) {#SAY $yo}
#SAY yo-ho
}
$pattern=yo
#IF (%match("yo", $pattern, $yo)) {
#IF ($yo) {#SAY $yo}
#SAY yo-ho-ho
}
$pattern=yo|to|no no|bo
#IF (%match("yo", "{$pattern}", $yo)) {
#IF ($yo) {#SAY $yo}
#SAY yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum
}</value>
</alias> |
For some reason I cant get a match when using a $localVar stringlist in the pattern.
Also, since the pattern matches starting with the first char, shouldn't $yo=1 instead of 2? Or am I looking too close. |

"{$pattern}" is a string--$pattern is not expanded. What you need is: %concat("{",$pattern,"}")

The %match will _return_ a 1, but $yo will not be changed because you are not capturing any values in your pattern.

figured my own answers... since i have no () its going on pattern length, so 2 is right, and i just need to %concat in the $pattern to make it work:
%concat("({", $pattern, "})") |
