Hi Raj, Thank you very much for the reply. So I believe there are two ways of
handling this : 1. Use unicode ranges, This will work fine for Indic languages. eg
For Devanagri ,
Regex regex = new Regex(@"[\u0900-\u097F]");
String ?????? = "????????????Bad";
This will give only the hindi letters on doing a match and it would filter out the
tamil and english.
2. To use Regex regex = new Regex(@"[\p{L}]");
This would validate tamil , english and hindi alphabets in the string above.
I was wondering if there is some switch with \p or some other regex option that
decides the unicode range without me specifying it explicitly depending on what my
UICulture is set to.
After I say CultureInfo ci = new CultureInfo("ta-IN",true);
When I try to do a word match , it should validated strings based on my locale chosen.
That way I don't hard code all the unicode ranges, I just write a generic regex, and
decide my CultureInfo dynamically. Like in the above case, it should filter all
non-Tamil characters.
I also noticed that characters in hindi (must be the case with all caseless languages)
dont match a \p{Ll} or \p{Lu} but only a \p{L}. I dont understand Unicode groups and
block ranges well, am looking out for a more detailed (and understandable)
documentation .
Thanks for the info again.
Regards,
Dolly
