[Solved] How to get a substring from the beginning till the middle of a word using regex [closed]

by


Try this. I am assuming path is a real word. This also includes the \ after loading so it would not change paths where loading would be loadingPlatform or somewordloading which may produce undesirable results. Note that the back slashes need to be escape once for the String and once for the regex engine.

String s = "\\path\\test\\files\\loading\\hold\\sample.text";
s = s.replaceAll("\\\\path.*\\\\loading\\\\", "..\\\\");
System.out.println(s);

prints


..\hold\sample.text
