regular expression to read the string between <title> and </title>

I hope to read the contents betweenandin a html string. I think it should be in objective-c @\"<title([\\\\s\\\\S]*)</title>\"

I hope to read the contents between and in a html string.

I think it should be in objective-c

@"<title([\\s\\S]*)</title>"

below are the codes that rewrited for regular expression

//source of NSStringCategory.h
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <regex.h>


@interface NSStringCategory:NSObject
{
    regex_t preg;
}

-(id)initWithPattern:(NSString *)pattern options:(int)options;
-(void)dealloc;

-(BOOL)matchesString:(NSString *)string;
-(NSString *)matchedSubstringOfString:(NSString *)string;
-(NSArray *)capturedSubstringsOfString:(NSString *)string;

+(NSStringCategory *)regexWithPattern:(NSString *)pattern options:(int)options;
+(NSStringCategory *)regexWithPattern:(NSString *)pattern;

+(NSString *)null;

+(void)initialize;

@end


@interface NSString (NSStringCategory)


-(BOOL)matchedByPattern:(NSString *)pattern options:(int)options;

-(BOOL)matchedByPattern:(NSString *)pattern;

-(NSString *)substringMatchedByPattern:(NSString *)pattern options:(int)options;


-(NSString *)substringMatchedByPattern:(NSString *)pattern;


-(NSArray *)substringsCapturedByPattern:(NSString *)pattern options:(int)options;


-(NSArray *)substringsCapturedByPattern:(NSString *)pattern;


-(NSString *)escapedPattern;

@end

and .m file

 #import "NSStringCategory.h"
static NSString *nullstring=nil;

        if(err)
        {
            char errbuf[256];
            regerror(err,&preg,errbuf,sizeof(errbuf));
            [NSException raise:@"CSRegexException"
                        format:@"Could not compile regex \"%@\": %s",pattern,errbuf];
        }
    }
    return self;

    regmatch_t *matches=calloc(sizeof(regmatch_t),num);

    if(regexec(&preg,cstr,num,matches,0)==0)
    {
        NSMutableArray *array=[NSMutableArray arrayWithCapacity:num];

        int i;
        for(i=0;i<num;i++)
        {

            if(matches[i].rm_so==-1&&matches[i].rm_eo==-1) str=nullstring;
            else str=[[[NSString alloc] initWithBytes:cstr+matches[i].rm_so

           ||c=='|'||c=='*'||c=='+'||c=='?'||c=='{'||c=='\\') [escaped appendFormat:@"\\%C",c];
        else [escaped appendFormat:@"%C",c];
    }
    return [NSString stringWithString:escaped];
}



@end

I use the codes below to get the string between "" and ""

NSStringCategory *a=[[NSStringCategory alloc] initWithPattern:@"<title([\s\S]*)</title>" options:0];//

Unfortunately [a matchedSubstringOfString:response]] always returns nil

I do not if the regular expression is wrong or any other reason.

Welcome any comment

Thanks

(Preliminary warning: you can't parse HTML correctly with Regex.)


You are using regex.h, which provides POSIX regular expression (ERE in your case). They do not support all of the PCRE syntax such as \s and \S (and [\s\S] is useless anyway — it matches anything).

Probably you should use

initWithPattern:@"<title[^>]*>([^<]*)</title>" options:REG_ICASE


<title[^>]*>\([^<]*\)</title> should do the trick.


For this specific case, I might try instantiating a WebDocumentRepresentation object from the /System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit framework.

You could set the data source for the WebDocumentRepresentation object to the HTML page you were interested in, and then use the object's title method to return the title.

Here's the Mac OSX Reference Library document on the object.
