Parse Definition Quick Editor - Normalization Regexlib

The Normalization Regexlib in the Parse Definition Quick Editor provides similar functionality as the separate Regex Editor. You can edit and create new regex libraries within the parse definition.

Note Note: Normalization Regexlib in the Parse Definition Quick Editor does not provide the ability to test your regex libraries like the Regex Editor.

The tab includes the following elements:

Normalization regexlibs used in definition - Displays the normalization regexlibs used in the parse definition (0 or more). When an existing definition is loaded, all that definition's normalization regexlibs appear in the list view field in logical order, starting at the top. When a new definition is created, no normalization regexlibs exist yet, so the field is empty. Zero or one row of the field may be selected at a time.

Add Expression - To add a new expression to the Parse Definition Quick Editor, right-click on one of the expressions and select Add Expression. The Add Expression dialog opens.

Regular Expression - A regular expression is a pattern matched against a subject string from left to right. Most characters stand for themselves in a pattern and match the corresponding characters in the subject. For more information about Regular Expressions and Substitution, refer to Customize - Regex Library Editor - Using Regular Expressions.

Substitution - A substitution is a string that is inserted into the output of a regular expression call in place of the pattern matched by the regular expression. For more information about Regular Expressions and Substitution, refer to Customize - Regex Library Editor - Using Regular Expressions.

Notes - Use the Notes section to create a note related to the selected expression.

Edit Expression - You can edit an existing expression, right-click on the expression you want to edit and select Edit Expression. Make your changes and click OK.

Delete Expression - To delete an existing expression, select the expression, right-click and click Delete Expression.

Move Expression - Move a selected expression up or down in the list.

Save Expression - Saves the expression.
