regex to find instance of a word or phrase -- except if that word or phrase is in braces -


First of all, a disclaimer. I know something about Reggae but I am not an expert. They look like something that I really need twice a year, so they do not stay "up" of my brain.

Status: I want to write a regex to match a certain word, let's call it "ostrich". easy. Except ostriches can sometimes appear inside a curly brace. If this is inside a curly brace then this is not a match. The trick here is that there may be spaces within curly braces. Apart from this, the text is usually inside the paragraph. I

This should match: I have an ostrich.

It should not match: went to my emu {ostrich race name}. <

It should be a match: went to my ostrich (ostriches race name).

This should not be a match: went to my emu {race ostrich place} went to my emu {race place ostrich}.

It seems that it is possible with a regex, but I'm not sure to see it.

I will provide an alternative solution to do that, which is slightly stronger (not using regex Make a claim)).

First of all, remove all code, such as {[^}] +} (change it to change to an empty string).

Now you can search for ostrich (using regex or simple string matching, according to your requirements).

c++ - QtQuick: QQmlApplicationEngine failed to load component qrc:/main.qml:23 Invalid attached object assignment -

Looking at my thoughts below, am I barking the wrong tree? Or in the information given below, am I misusing the Qt API to get an error in the title? I'm trying to modify the sample to work with the default coefficic project generated from Qt Creator 3.3.0 (OpenSource). Qt 5.4.0 (GCC 4.6.1, 64bit) Based on. The first thing to look at after the code is that I stand by: The sample uses the main.cpp: qmlRegisterType & lt ; Squircle & gt; ("OpenGLUARMM", 1, 0, "Squircle"); QQuickView view; View.setResizeMode (QQuickView :: SizeRootObjectToView); View.setSource (QUrl ("QRC: ///scenegraph/openglunderqml/main.qml")); View.show (); Some name changes in my name. CPP qmlRegisterType & lt; Menuscreen & gt; ("OpenGLUnderQML", 1, 0, "Main Screen"); QQmlApplicationEngine engine; Engine.load (QUrl (QStringLiteral ("QRC: /main.qml"))); I'm not sure that the difference in using QQmlApplicationEngine...

sql - dynamically varied number of conditions in the 'where' statement using LINQ -

I am using my first project LINQ (in mvc), so maybe there's something very simple that I remember. However, a day of searching and experimenting does not work, so it works. I am trying to write a LINQ query (Linux to SQL) in which in many cases where the statement is different from an OR or an AND. We do not know how many conditions are going in the query till runtime. This search is for filter control, where the user can choose multiple criteria for filtering. Select from table where table.col = 1 or table.col = 2 or table.col = 7 .... 'Other number of conditions Before I just create the SQL query as a string, while looping over all the situations. However, it seems that there should be a good way to do this in LINQ. I tried to use Expression trees, but they had a second thought for this moment on my head, where the lambda function was to be executed inside the statement such as: values ​​for matchingRows = matchingRows for each value Where (function (row) row.c...

asp.net - getting a value of selected radiobutton in LoadViewState -

Can I get the value of a selected radio button in the LoadViewState event of WebControl and how? All components are generated in codebehind, so I have those controls: Radiobutton list RLL; LISTIME leon; List liTwo; At this time I was stuck on that the overloaded loadviolet is not being implemented protected override zero load vivestat (object o) {action = Rbl.SelectedValue; Verb 2 = rll Selected item. value; Base.LoadViewState (O); } You also need to override the SaveViewState method. Radio button AFAIK has problems in saving their selected state.
