Subject: Re: [xsl] Escaping Curly Braces in Regex From: Martin Honnen <Martin.Honnen@xxxxxx> Date: Thu, 01 Oct 2009 12:16:45 +0200 |
If in an XSLT 2 regular expression I want to match a literal curly brace, what do I have to put in the regex?
For example, if my input string is " {some text}"
And I want to match any string that is enclosed in curly braces, with optional whitespace before and after, I've tried:
matches(., '^\s*{.+}\s*$') matches(., '^\s*{{.+}}\s*$') matches(., '^\s*\{.+\}\s*$') matches(., '^\s*\{{.+\}}\s*$')
There are inside a predicate inside a select attribute in my XSL file. All are rejected as syntax errors.
What's the right way of doing this?
This matches(. , '^\s*\{[^\}]+\}\s*$') works for me with Saxon and Altova.
