I'm using RegexDesigner.NET to make some patterns to color my XML document in a RichTextBox.
This is the pattern that works in the designer
=(\".*?\"|\'.*?\'|\b(\w|-)+\b) //which is the same as this
=(".*?"|'.*?'|\b(\w|-)+\b) // which selects
="some text in an xml attribute" //or
='some text in an xml attribute'
All of my other patterns for tags, comments, and such work except this one.
"=(".*?"|'.*?'|\b(\w|-)+\b)"
where i get an unrecognized escape seq. \w
So I tried all of these:
"=(\".*?\"|\'.*?\'|\b(\w|-)+\b)" //unrecognized escape seq. \w
@"=(".*?"|'.*?'|\b(\w|-)+\b)" //does nothing
I'm clearly all jacked up with my string literals and when its going to convert it here, and turn it into a quote there....
I'm using the pattern in C#. Any ideas?
