Regex to remove all commentaries in the script Topic is solved

[Chappier]

I searched into the source of Ahk2Exe to see how does it clear all commentaries in the script before compiling it, and found the regex above:

Code: Select all

"ms`a)(^\s*/\*.*?^\s*\*/\s*\v|(?-s)(^\s*;.*\R|[ \t]+;.*)|^\s+?\v)"

The regex also clears empty lines, and clears the commentaries lines.
Im trying to clear the commentaries but keep their lines in the same place, example:

Code: Select all

/*
Commentaries
*/
;Commentaries
x := 1 ;Commentaries

to

Code: Select all

x := 1

Code: Select all

str =
(
/*
Commentaries
*/
;Commentaries
x := 1 ;Commentaries
)
MsgBox, 64, Result, % noComment(str)

noComment(str) {
 str := RegExReplace(str, "m`a)(\h+|^);.*")
 While RegExMatch(str, "(.*?)(\n|\A)/\*(.*?)(\n)\*/(.*)", m)
  str := m1 m2 RegExReplace(m3, "[^\v]") m4 m5
 Return str
}
