NSArray of NSRegularExpressions in swift


The fork here has a custom link function but the implementation in the actual code is in objective C.This is the code line and her it is printed again:

- (NSArray<NSRegularExpression*>*)getRegularExpressions
{
   return [NSArray arrayWithObject:[NSRegularExpression regularExpressionWithPattern:@"#([a-zA-Z0-9])+" options:0 error:NULL]];
}

I was wondering how i could reproduce this in swift, I have already placed all of the framework code, I just need to know how to do this.


Solution

  • Try this

    func getRegularExpressions() -> [NSRegularExpression] {
        var arrayOfExpressions = [NSRegularExpression]()
        do
        {
            let expresion = try NSRegularExpression(pattern: "#([a-zA-Z0-9])+", options:.CaseInsensitive)
            arrayOfExpressions.append(expresion)
        }catch _
        {
            arrayOfExpressions.removeAll()
            return arrayOfExpressions
        }
        return arrayOfExpressions;
    }
    

    I hope this helps you
