[TC10.50b3] Regex replace: Numbered group reference defaults to "$"

[white]

Select a file named "abc" and start the Multi-Rename Tool. Then do the following search and replace:

Code: Select all

Search for:    (b)
Replace with:  $2
RegEx:         Enabled

Result:        a$c
Expected:      ac

TC 9.51 works fine, bug introduced in TC version 10.00.

It's a bug in the regex library. I have reported it and a fix has been made. See:
https://github.com/andgineer/TRegExpr/issues/268

Thanks, their fix seems to work for me. I will include it in beta 4.

Tested OK using TC10.50b4 32bit and 64bit.

(The fix for TRegExpr has been merged with master branche and a new release has been created. You already have the latest sources, so you don't have to do anything.)

The fix for TRegExpr has been merged with master branche and a new release has been created.

Indeed I saw this just today before the release can compared the new master branch with my code to be sure that I didn't miss any changes.
