I am trying to properly extract methods definitions that are generated by comtypes for Com Interfaces using a regex. Furthermore some of them are blank which causes even more problems for me.
Basically i have this:
IXMLSerializerAlt._methods_ = [
COMMETHOD([helpstring(u'Loads an object from an XML string.')], HRESULT, 'LoadFromString',
( ['in'], BSTR, 'XML' ),
( ['in'], BSTR, 'TypeName' ),
( ['in'], BSTR, 'TypeNamespaceURI' ),
( ['retval', 'out'], POINTER(POINTER(IUnknown)), 'obj' )),
]
class EnvironmentManager(CoClass):
u'Singleton object that manages different environments (collections of configuration information).'
_reg_clsid_ = GUID('{8A626D49-5F5E-47D9-9463-0B802E9C4167}')
_idlflags_ = []
_typelib_path_ = typelib_path
_reg_typelib_ = ('{5E1F7BC3-67C5-4AEE-8EC6-C4B73AAC42ED}', 1, 0)
INumberFormat._methods_ = [
]
I want to extract both the IXMLSerializerAlt and INumberFormat methods definitions however i cant figure out a proper regex. E.g. for IXMLSerializer i want to extract this:
IXMLSerializerAlt._methods_ = [
COMMETHOD([helpstring(u'Loads an object from an XML string.')], HRESULT, 'LoadFromString',
( ['in'], BSTR, 'XML' ),
( ['in'], BSTR, 'TypeName' ),
( ['in'], BSTR, 'TypeNamespaceURI' ),
( ['retval', 'out'], POINTER(POINTER(IUnknown)), 'obj' )),
]
This regex in my mind this should work:
^\w+\._methods_\s=\s\[$
(^.+$)*
^]$
Im checking my regex's using kodos however i cannot figure out a way to make this work.
