Reverse String Using Regexes
If I had a string like <start_delim>asdf<end_delim>
and I wanted to take an alphanumeric string between the delimiters and reverse it using regexes, how would I go about doing this?
My natural instinct was to use something like preg_replace("<start_delim>([a-zA-Z0-9]+)<end_delim>", s开发者_JAVA百科trrev($1), $str)
, but for obvious reasons, that didn't work.
You'll have to use preg_replace_callback
$str = "<start_delim>asdf<end_delim>";
function my_callback($m) {
return $m[1].strrev($m[2]).$m[3];
}
echo preg_replace_callback("/(<start_delim>)([a-zA-Z0-9]+)(<end_delim>)/", 'my_callback' , $str);

Similar to previous solutions, but using a lambda:
$str = "<start_delim>asdf<end_delim>";
$result = preg_replace_callback('/<start_delim>([a-zA-Z0-9]+)<end_delim>/', function($matches) {
return strrev($matches[1]);
}, $str);
echo "$result\n";
Somebody pointed out in a comment it'd be better not to use the /e modifier, but if possible, that would work. Almost exactly as you thought:
echo preg_replace('|<start_delim>([^<^]+)<end_delim>|e', 'strrev("$1")', $str);
