Searching for text in files
Hi All,
I am having trouble putting some Ruby together to search through some lines of text in a specific file. I have one file, called siteowner.aspx, that contains a certain string that would like to compare against a static value. So far, I can pick the correct line out, but I would like to filter it for a certain string. So far, my code is as follows: Code:
File.open("\\path\\to\\site.aspx", 'r') do |infile|
while (line2 = infile.gets)
puts 'Via Regxp, Site owner is: '+ line2 if line2 =~ (/^= /)
end
end
However, I am stuck with the regular expression. The above code gives me: 'Via Regxp, Site owner is: siteowner = "OWNER" But what I would really like is: 'Via Regxp, Site owner is: "Owner". I dont suppose someone could help me out a bit and show me where I have gone wrong?

Code:
irb(main):004:0> s = "siteowner=OWNER"
=> "siteowner=OWNER"
irb(main):005:0> puts "Owner is: #{$1}" if s =~ /.+=(\S+)/
Owner is: OWNER
You can use grouping to get a specific portion of a regular expression. additionally Code:
irb(main):008:0> "OWNER".capitalize => "Owner"
