XML Schema Regular Expressions Builder

The XML Schema regular expressions builder allows testing regular expressions on a fragment of text as they are applied to an XML instance document. Start the tool from menu Tools > XML Schema Regular Expressions Builder .

XML Schema Regular Expressions Builder Dialog

The dialog contains the following sections:

After editing and testing your regular expression you can insert it in the current editor. The Insert button will become active when an editor is opened in the background and there is an expression in the Regular expressions editor.

The regular expression builder cannot be used to insert regular expressions in the grid version or the schema version of a document editor. Accordingly, the Insert button of the dialog will be disabled if the current document is edited in grid mode.

Note: Some regular expressions may block indefinitely the Java Regular Expressions engine. If the execution of the regular expression does not end in about five seconds, the application displays a dialog that allows you to interrupt the operation.
