Match the body of a function using Regex

Question

Given a dummy function as such:

public function handle()
{
  if (isset($input[\'data\']) {
    switch($data) {
      ...
    }
  } else {
    switch($data) {         


        

Answer 1

This works to output header file (.h) out of inline function blocks (.c)

Find Regular expression:

(void\s[^{};]*)\n^\{($[^}$]*)\}$

Replace with:

$1;

For input:

void bar(int var)
{ 
    foo(var);
    foo2();
}

will output:

void bar(int var);

Get the body of the function block with second matched pattern :

$2

will output:

    foo(var);
    foo2();
