NAME
|
|
replace_matching_line() - Focused string replacement.
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
varargs mixed replace_matching_line(string target, string substring, string replace, int i, string exclude)
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
This monstrosity is quite different from
|
|
replace_line. Rather than keying on
|
|
newlines to determine where a line ends, it attempts
|
|
to parse the code to identify
|
|
the entire LPC instruction.
|
|
|
|
target: This can be a string or a filename. If it is a filename, the
|
|
file will be read and treated as a string.
|
|
|
|
substring: The string used to determine a match.
|
|
|
|
replace: The replacement line.
|
|
|
|
i: Whether it should replace one matching line or all matching lines.
|
|
|
|
exclude: If the line matches but it also contains this string, do not replace.
|
|
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
replace_matching_line("/realms/cratylus/workroom.c", "AddMeep",
|
|
"SetMeep(([\"feep\":\"Meepos\",\n\"meep\":\"Feepos\",\n]));", "Balky");
|
|
|
|
This line would read my workroom into a string, and if it has a line
|
|
that contains "AddMeep" that *doesn't* contain "Balky", it will remove that line
|
|
from the string and replace it with my SetMeep substitute.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This will not change my workroom. It will return a string that I
|
|
can overwrite my workroom with, or that I can write to some other file.
