Interface IStdMatchCollectionClass
RD-VBAL §6.2 VBScript Regular Expressions: the MatchCollection class, the matches RegExp.Execute found.
[StdLibClass(null, IsCreatable = false)]
public interface IStdMatchCollectionClass
Remarks
Its members are numbered from 0. Item(VBLongValue) is the default member of the class, so m(0) is m.Item(0), and a For Each
over it enumerates the matches in the order they are in the text. Only RegExp.Execute makes one.
Methods
Count()
Gets how many matches there are.
[StdLibMember(null, Kind = StdLibMemberKind.PropertyGet)]
RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult<VBLongValue> Count()
Returns
- RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult<VBLongValue>
A RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult object encapsulating the result of the successful operation, or the error metadata otherwise.
Item(VBLongValue)
Gets a match by its position.
[StdLibMember(null, Kind = StdLibMemberKind.PropertyGet, UserMemId = 0)]
RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult<VBObjectValue> Item(VBLongValue index)
Parameters
indexVBLongValueFrom
0toCount - 1.
💥InvalidProcedureCallOrArgument for any other.
Returns
- RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult<VBObjectValue>
A RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult whose value is a
Match(IStdMatchClass).
Remarks
It is declared Object, as the library's own type library declares it (IDispatch): m(0).SubMatches(Null) is a late-bound call
whatever m is declared as, a type mismatch where an early-bound one is error 94 (MS-VBA, recorded in Excel).
NewEnum()
Returns the object that enumerates the matches: what a For Each over them drives.
[StdLibMember("_NewEnum", ReturnType = typeof(IStdEnumVariantClass), IsHidden = true, UserMemId = -4)]
RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult<VBObjectValue> NewEnum()
Returns
- RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult<VBObjectValue>
A RuntimeSemanticsEvaluationResult whose value is an object of the
IEnumVARIANTclass (IStdEnumVariantClass).
