    Default Need Regex for a pattern

    Hello,

    I need a pattern for the following use cases: I am using Java

    1. var so = nokia.device.load('abc','abc');
    2. var so = nokia.device.load("abc","abc");
    3. var so = nokia.device.load("abc");
    4. var so = nokia.device.load('abc');
    // 5. var so = nokia.device.load('abc'); (Line is commentted)
    /*
    function init()
    {
    if (window.menu) {
    // set tab-navigation mode and hide softkeys
    widget.setNavigationEnabled(false);
    var so = nokia.device.load("abc");(Line is commentted)
    }
    */

    I need a regex pattern which will be give me only the function statments which are listed in bold and NOT italic format function statements as those statements are commented.

    Basically, the pattern should give me the statments which are not commented.
    Please help me, its urgent.

    Thanks,
    Mallikarjun.

    Default Re: Need Regex for a pattern

    I am using this pattern

    nokia.device.load..\w*.*

    but this works for all the statements (commented o non-commented).
    I need a pattern, which skips the statement (// 5. var so = nokia.device.load('abc'); (Line is commentted)) which are in the comments.

    Basically, the pattern should give me the statments which are not commented.

    Don't you think you should inform members here that your question is already answered on another forum? Or maybe it just doesn't bother you that someone may waste time trying to help you with a problem that no longer exists.
