Regex replace pattern - advanced find plugin for Gedit

Question

I'm trying to replace all instances of

$offer->variablenames

with

$offer['variablenames']

Is this possible? I'm using advanced find plugin for gedit.

It's just heiroglyphs to me... Would very much appreciate help.
Thanks

Answer 1

Find what:

\$offer\-\>([a-zA-Z0-9_]*)

Replace with:

$offer['\1']

Make sure to have Regular expression checkbox checked.

It's strange, some other app using $1 instead of \1. Thank you! – Dilapidate

Answer 2

I'm not sure what advanced find plugin syntax is. In vim I would use s/$offer->\(.*\)/$offer['\1']/g
