Regex in Custom package in C# i want capture (meta:resourcekey =".......")

DTE dte = Package.GetGlobalService(typeof(DTE)) as DTE;
TextDocument activeDoc = dte.ActiveDocument.Object() as TextDocument;
var text = activeDoc.CreateEditPoint(activeDoc.StartPoint).GetText(activeDoc.EndPoint);
var input = (text);
var regex = new Regex(#"(\bresourcekey\b+) = ");
var match = regex.Matches(input);
string matches = string.Empty;
foreach(var item in match)
{
matches += item.ToString() + " ";
}
MessageBox.Show(matches);
My regex command are fault(i know)but i want capture meta:resourcekey = "......" from my messagebox text i want only .... part of my capturing.

Here is plain regex
meta:resourcekey[\s]=[\s]\"(.*?)\"
And here is c# Example
var mydata = "meta:resourcekey = \"something\"";
Regex regex = new Regex("meta:resourcekey[\\s]*=[\\s]*\"(.*?)\\\"");
foreach (Match htmlPath in regex.Matches(mydata))
{
Console.WriteLine(htmlPath.Groups[1].Value);
}

DTE dte = Package.GetGlobalService(typeof(DTE)) as DTE;
TextDocument activeDoc = dte.ActiveDocument.Object() as TextDocument;
var text = activeDoc.CreateEditPoint(activeDoc.StartPoint).GetText(activeDoc.EndPoint);
var input = (text);
Regex regex = new Regex(#"(meta:resourcekey)+(\W)+(\w*)+(\W)");
var match = regex.Matches(input);
string matches = string.Empty;
foreach(var item in match)
{
matches += item.ToString() + " ";
}
MessageBox.Show(matches);
I found the answer like that.That makes Scann the current page code and write to text and finally getting meta:resourcekey="something" all of the code pages... Write to MessageBox

finding a variable from string input and extracting it with regex c#

~I have a client which is sending the a message to my server and I am trying to get substrings in order to extract them into variables. I want to use regex for this. Although I have no syntax problems, it will not match. This is the message I am sending and my code.
" PUT /John\r\n\r\n
London "
private StreamReader sReader = null;
private StreamWriter sWriter = null;
public SocketClass(Socket s)
{
socket = s;
NetworkStream nStream = new NetworkStream(s);
sReader = new StreamReader(nStream);
sWriter = new StreamWriter(nStream);
startSocket();
}
String txt = "";
while (sReader.Peek() >= 0)
{
txt += sReader.ReadLine() + "\r\n";
}
else if (txt.Contains("PUT"))
{
Console.WriteLine("triggered");
Regex pattern = new Regex(#"PUT /(?<Name>\d+)\r\n\r\n(?<Location>\d+)\r\n");
Match match = pattern.Match(txt);
if (match.Success)
{
String Name = match.Groups["Name"].Value;
String Location = match.Groups["Location"].Value;
Console.WriteLine(Name);
Console.WriteLine(Location);
}
}

The problem seems to be that while your input has alphanumeric characters your regex is looking for \d which are numeric digits. The regex can be easily changed to this to make it work:
Regex pattern = new Regex(#"PUT /(?<Name>.+)\r\n\r\n(?<Location>.+)\r\n");
. represents any character. It may be that you could narrow it down more to say the match has to be alphabetic characters or something else but the above will certainly work for your given input.

Facebook feed - remove extra Facebook JS from anchor

Please help me to replace all the additional Facebook information from here using C# .net Regex Replace method.
Example
http://on.fb.me/OE6gnBsomehtml
Output
somehtml on.fb.me/OE6gnB somehtml
I tried following regex but they didn't work for me
searchPattern = "<a([.]*)?/l.php([.]*)?(\">)?([.]*)?(</a>)?";
replacePattern = "$3";
Thanks

I manage to do this using regex with following code
searchPattern = "<a(.*?)href=\"/l.php...(.*?)&?(.*?)>(.*?)</a>";
string html1 = Regex.Replace(html, searchPattern, delegate(Match oMatch)
{
return string.Format("{1}", HttpUtility.UrlDecode(oMatch.Groups[2].Value), oMatch.Groups[4].Value);
});

You can try this (System.Web has to be added to use System.Web.HttpUtility):
string input = #"http://on.fb.me/OE6gnBsomehtml";
string rootedInput = String.Format("<root>{0}</root>", input);
XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(rootedInput, LoadOptions.PreserveWhitespace);
string href;
var anchors = doc.Descendants("a").ToArray();
for (int i = anchors.Count() - 1; i >= 0; i--)
{
href = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(anchors[i].Attribute("href").Value)[0];
XElement newAnchor = new XElement("a");
newAnchor.SetAttributeValue("href", href);
newAnchor.SetValue(href.Replace(#"http://", String.Empty));
anchors[i].ReplaceWith(newAnchor);
}
string output = doc.Root.ToString(SaveOptions.DisableFormatting)
.Replace("<root>", String.Empty)
.Replace("</root>", String.Empty);

C# Regexp change link format

On my forum I have a lot of redundant link data like:
[url:30l7ypk7]http://www.box.net/shared/0p28sf6hib[/url:30l7ypk7]
In regexp how can I change these to the format:
http://www.box.net/shared/0p28sf6hib

string orig = "[url:30l7ypk7]http://www.box.net/shared/0p28sf6hib[/url:30l7ypk7]";
string replace = "$1";
string regex = #"\[url:.*?](.*?)\[/url:.*?]";
string fixedLink = Regex.Replace(orig, regex, replace);

This isn't doing it totally in Regex but will still work...
string oldUrl = "[url:30l7ypk7]http://www.box.net/shared/0p28sf6hib[/url:30l7ypk7]";
Regex regExp = new Regex(#"http://[^\[]*");
var match = regExp.Match(oldUrl);
string newUrl = string.Format("<a href='{0}' rel='nofollow'>{0}</a>", match.Value);

This should capture the string \[([^\]]+)\]([^[]+)\[/\1\] and group it so you can pull out the URL like this:
Regex re = new Regex(#"\[([^\]]+)\]([^[]+)\[/\1\]");
var s = #"[url:30l7ypk7]http://www.box.net/shared/0p28sf6hib[/url:30l7ypk7]";
var replaced = s.Replace(s, string.Format("{0}", re.Match(s).Groups[1].Value));
Console.WriteLine(replaced)

This is just from memory but I will try to check it over when I have more time. Should help get you started.
string matchPattern = #"\[(url\:\w)\](.+?)\[/\1\]";
String replacePattern = #"<a href='$2' rel='nofollow'>$2</a>";
String blogText = ...;
blogText = Regex.Replace(matchPattern, blogText, replacePattern);

Saving an XML that has invalid characters

there are code snippets that strip the invalid characters inside a string before we save it as an XML ... but I have one more problem: Let's say my user wants to have a column name like "[MyColumnOne] ...so now I do not want to strip these "[","] well because these are the ones that user has defined and wants to see them so if I use some codes that are stripping the invalid characters they are also removing "[" and "[" but in this case I still need them to be saved... what can I do?

Never mind, I changed my RegEx format to use XML 1.1 instead of XML 1.0 and now it is working good :
string pattern = String.Empty;
//pattern = #"#x((10?|[2-F])FFF[EF]|FDD[0-9A-F]|7F|8[0-46-9A-F]9[0-9A-F])"; //XML 1.0
pattern = #"#x((10?|[2-F])FFF[EF]|FDD[0-9A-F]|[19][0-9A-F]|7F|8[0-46-9A-F]|0?[1-8BCEF])"; // XML 1.1
Regex regex = new Regex(pattern, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
if (regex.IsMatch(sString))
{
sString = regex.Replace(sString, String.Empty);
File.WriteAllText(sString, sString, Encoding.UTF8);
}
return sString;

This worked for me, and it was fast.
private object NormalizeString(object p) {
object result = p;
if (p is string || p is long) {
string s = string.Format("{0}", p);
string resultString = s.Trim();
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(resultString)) return "";
Regex rxInvalidChars = new Regex("[\r\n\t]+", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
if (rxInvalidChars.IsMatch(resultString)) {
resultString = rxInvalidChars.Replace(resultString, " ");
}
//string pattern = String.Empty;
//pattern = #"";
////pattern = #"#x((10?|[2-F])FFF[EF]|FDD[0-9A-F]|7F|8[0-46-9A-F]9[0-9A-F])"; //XML 1.0
////pattern = #"#x((10?|[2-F])FFF[EF]|FDD[0-9A-F]|[19][0-9A-F]|7F|8[0-46-9A-F]|0?[1-8BCEF])"; // XML 1.1
//Regex rxInvalidXMLChars = new Regex(pattern, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
//if (rxInvalidXMLChars.IsMatch(resultString)) {
// resultString = rxInvalidXMLChars.Replace(resultString, "");
//}
result = string.Join("", resultString.Where(c => c >= ' '));
}
return result;
}
