How to replace the text between two characters in c#

Question

I am bit confused writing the regex for finding the Text between the two delimiters { } and replace the text with another text in c#,how to replace?

Answer 1

You can use the Regex expression that some others have already posted, or you can use a more advanced Regex that uses balancing groups to make sure the opening { is balanced by a closing }.

That expression is then (?\{)([^\}]*)(?<-BRACE>\})

You can test this expression online at RegexHero.

You simply match your input string with this Regex pattern, then use the replace methods of Regex, for instance:

var result = Regex.Replace(input, "(?\{)([^\}]*)(?<-BRACE>\})", textToReplaceWith);
