search exact match in string
Quote from Wrangler on December 15, 2018, 9:51 pmI need to be able to search a string for an exact match. I have 2 lines in a file located in different places that are identical except for one word in the string:
husbandryCow
husbandryCowLarge
Is there a code snippet or plugin that will do it?
Hans-Peter: would it be possible to add optional exact match to hpwlinenumber?

To understand it right: When you search for husbandryCow you do not want to find husbandryCowLarge.
I am not sure but a regex may be can do it since there a Logik about word bounderys exist.
When you would know the character behind husbandryCow then you could include it in your search.
This may be a space, tab or CR character.
hpwlinenumber uses the simple Delphi "Pos" command which does only support the direkt character match.

Just tested the regex with hpwExecRegExpPos: \bhusbandryCow\b
This should give you the pos with your string-match at word boundery.
hpwPosToLineNumber (added 4.2018) can give you then the line-number.
