ModuleNameMatching in Attribute and extract the Object number

Dear Team,

Module name : 0P_05.DAT

I have a Attribute call xyz text based. This is having module name in braces in it but without .DAT in it>

For illustration, the Attribute content looks like:

Tetr ..... [0P_05].....text

I want to check this attribute contains the module name and record the object absolute number.

Requesting you guys to provide the generalised the solutions or suggestions so that I Can re-use for other modules too...

something like this?

// a regular expression that finds a literal dot
Regexp findDot= regexp2 "\\."
string modname = name mod // assuming that the module is stored in variable "mod"
if (findDot modname) {
    // found a literal dot. from "0P_05.DAT" extract the part before the dot, i.e. "0P_05"
    string ModWithoutExtension = modname [0:(start 0)-1]
           
          
    for o in mod do {
        string objtext = o."MyAttr""" // assuming that the text shall be found in attribute "MyAttr"
        // regular expression to find braces and the module name
        Regexp findModReference = regexp2 "\\[" ModWithoutExtension "]"
            if (findModReference objtext) {
                    print "found a reference to the module in " o."Absolute Number""\n"
            }
} else {
    print "illegal module name"
}

Hi,

Thanks a Lot,

I have used this logic to traverse through all the modules...

great help

Cheers....Mike!!!
