Rules and Constraints
Special Characters in
Regular Expression
Some fields in Capital Systems Integrator constraints support the use of regular expressions incorporating certain characters that have a special meaning (such as wildcards). If you want to reference one of these characters explicitly (without their special meaning) you must escape the character in those fields with a \ character.
For example:
If you want to specify the value WIRE (+), you must enter it as: WIRE (+)
The special characters to be escaped are:
| Special Characters |
|---|
| ^ |
| + |
| . |
| [ |
| ] |
| $ |
| ( |
| ) |
| * |
| { |
| } |
