Regular Expressions in VbScript?

问题:

Does VbScript have a native implementation for Regex? I need to validate e-mail addresses on an old ASP application.

Any pointers would be great.

This example is by AlexCuse from LessThanDot

Function ValidEmail(ByVal emailAddress) 

'this function will use regular expressions to check an '
'email address for validity '

'instantiate regex object container, output boolean '
Dim objRegEx, retVal 

'using late binding, vbscript reference is not required '
Set objRegEx = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp") 

'.pattern -looks for a valid email address '
With objRegEx 
      .Pattern = "^\b[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}\b$" 
      .IgnoreCase = True 
End With 

retVal = objRegEx.Test(emailAddress) 

'get rid of RegEx object '
Set objRegEx = Nothing 

ValidEmail = retVal 

End Function

Since the top answer here is in VB6 I thought I'd add one here in VBScript (since that's what the question is asking for):-

Option Explicit

Function GetEmailValidator()

  Set GetEmailValidator = New RegExp

  GetEmailValidator.Pattern = "^((?:[A-Z0-9_%+-]+\.?)+)@((?:[A-Z0-9-]+\.)+[A-Z]{2,4})$"

  GetEmailValidator.IgnoreCase = True

End Function

Dim EmailValidator : Set EmailValidator = GetEmailValidator()

Now some tests:-

Response.Write EmailValidator.Test("") = False
Response.Write EmailValidator.Test(" ") = False
Response.Write EmailValidator.Test("somebody@domain.co.uk") = True
Response.Write EmailValidator.Test("someone@domain.com") = True
Response.Write EmailValidator.Test("some.body@domain.co.uk") = True
Response.Write EmailValidator.Test("broken@domain..co.uk") = False
Response.Write EmailValidator.Test("@oops.co.uk") = False
Response.Write EmailValidator.Test("name") = False
Response.Write EmailValidator.Test("name@uk") = False
Response.Write EmailValidator.Test("name@uk") = False
Response.Write EmailValidator.Test("name@domain.abcde") = False

Yes, it sure does. Here's Microsoft's documention.



回答4:

Like other said, yes. I just wanted to put you at the devguru vbscript docs, I find they tend to be the good place to get quick vbscript answers. This is there section on the Regexp object.

VBScript has a built-in RegExp object, which is Microsoft's implementation of JavaScript regular expressions. I have an article about the VBScript RegExp object on my website that explains how to use it.
