LotusScript Support for Regex

As allready noted in previous posts a general solution should run on all plattforms. Similar to COM objects java is not available in Nomad. Nomad / Nomad Web is going to be the most used client for a standard user.
Ideas/WIshes for additional functions directly in Lotusscript are targeting all platforms/clients.

Set regexp = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")

Does not work in Nomad. It says

Operation not supported on this platform

So we need a native Regex support urgently.

I used something like this a while ago which still works.

Dim x As String
Dim regexp As Variant
	
x = "5s"
	
Set regexp = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")
regexp.Global = True
regexp.Pattern = "^[0-9]+$"
Print regexp.Test(x)

wrapping LotusScript around the JVM

This is a workaround. Moreover, the present direction of development is to abandon Java on the client.

* most lotusscript lacks

We support this so far with a UseLSX wrapper around java.util.regex.Pattern. Seems that most things this site suggests are doable within the domino environment by wrapping LotusScript around the JVM.

both regex replace and regex match would be good to have.
