Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 3575
Regular expression search not working
Last modified: 2013-02-24 21:07:23 UTC
Binary release 642 on SuSE 7.3 Regular expression searches (using com.sun.star.util.TextSearch) in StarBasic which worked under StarOffice 6.0beta doesn't work with 642 (and 641C) I also confirmed this by trying a manual "find and replace" from the UI, e.g. document text = 123 touch your knees, 456 pick up sticks Search for = ou Find all (no regular expression) -> highlights 2 matches Find all (regular expression) -> returns "Search key not found" dialog. Only StarOffice 6.0beta correctly finds the regular expressions
implementation issue
TL: works for me in current 642 build ( build number >= 7879 ). Works via API as well as via UI.
my guess: does work in StarOffice, does NOT work in OpenOffice - pleae check
closed.
