Hello everybody,
I've been looking at the "SAP_BODS_42_Tech_Manuals.pdf" but I can't find any explanation about the built-in function "regex_replace", which seems to be is the equivalent to "REGEXP_REPLACE" in Oracle.
In the own SAP BODS, the wizard gives you a short explanation of the function and each parameter but I would like to know some more details.
First of all, I would like to know the Flags you have available to use.
Also, I would like to perform something like (where PALABRA_IN = 'HELLO COOL WORLD'):
- REGEXP_REPLACE(PALABRA_IN, '^([A-Z]+) ([A-Z]+) ([A-Z]+)$', '\2'); --> 'COOL'
So, therefore, being able to get the part of the input string I want according to the regular expression I use, in this case the second word.
I've tried with "\2" and "$2" but any of them work and it's not clarified in the documentation.
I would like to know as well if there is a equivalent built-in function for the Oracle one "REGEXP_SUBSTR".
Thanks and regards
