base » saveReplace(text,regex,replace,resultVar)

Description

This command does a number of things:

1. Nexial reads in text
2. Nexial matches it against the specified regex, and replace all matched portion/region of text with the specified text (replace)
3. Nexial saves the modified text into a new variable denoted as resultVar

If text is specified via the ${...} syntax, Nexial internally will handle the appropriate conversion if the target variable represents an array, a list, a map or a Java object. 

Parameters

• text - the text (can be referenced via ${…} syntax) that will be evaluated. 
• regex - the regular expression to use for this match and replace operation
• replace - the text to replace all the matched region/portion of text
• resultVar - the name of the new variable to save the replaced text

Example
