Hello,

I have a nattable column filter with RegularExpression Text Matching Mode, but when i filter with a regular expression, nattble give me no result.

for example the filter is : ^someString so i want to retreive all lines that doesn't conatins the string : "someString".

How should i resolve this problem ?

Thanks in advance

hm, I'm not 100% sure, but doesn't your statement say "not s" + "omeString" ... shouldn't it be ^(someString)?

I think you should get familiar with regular expressions in Java.

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/regex/index.html

But for example [^L]* will find any string that doesn't contain a L

You can say that i am not familiar with advanced regular expression in Java but basic regular expression there no problem, i've tested a basic one but nattable filter give no result, for example \w+ should give all the nattable recode (in my case) but it returns no result

Funny, because if I modify the _6031_GlazedListsFilterExample to set the matching mode of the lastname column to regular expression doing this

configRegistry.registerConfigAttribute(
                    FilterRowConfigAttributes.TEXT_MATCHING_MODE,
                    TextMatchingMode.REGULAR_EXPRESSION, DisplayMode.NORMAL,
                    FilterRowDataLayer.FILTER_ROW_COLUMN_LABEL_PREFIX
                    + DataModelConstants.LASTNAME_COLUMN_POSITION);


Your filter expression is working as expected.

oh Sorry Embarrassed , it was my mistake, beacause i was checking a source code that has TextMatchingMode.REGULAR_EXPRESSION, but the real running example was with a TextMatchingMode.STARTS_WITH, by the way this regular expression ^((?!sometring).)*$ find all record that doesn't have "someString" substring in the desired column. Razz

Thank you again for your quick responses
