How to check IEnumerable(Match) variable through IF statement

[Ellen]

Is it possible to check that IEnumerable(Match) variable containes the matching result or not.

IF yes then how can we do that with IF statement?

Your question can be interpreted in many directions

When IEnumarable(Of Match) has a match item, we could assume that there was a match

a YourIEnumerableVar.Any() would reflect it

[Ellen]

Finding Matching pattern will always give a match?

what if it didt find the match? how would I know that It didt not find a match??

I want to be sure that if that find a match then give me value of groups … and If not then give an error massage…

that I want to build.

Hi @Ellen

You can use the below expression to check the matching result contain in the String Variable

- Assign -> BoolFlag = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.IsMatch(yourstringinput.ToString,“(Give regex here)”)

The BoolFlag variable is the Boolean datatype which give the output true or false.

Hope it helps!!

Unfortunately we cannot map on what is meant with

with the Any Check you can test before accessing

Hi @Ellen ,

You can use If yourVar.Contains(“something”).

@Ellen

and If not then give an error massage

We assume that the matches Activtiy is involved (You mentioned IEnumerable(Of Match) And not MatchCollection (output from Regex.Matches)

A pattern could look like this:
