Cheng Hao commented on SPARK-8256: ---------------------------------- I'll take this one. > string function: regexp_replace > ------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-8256 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8256 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: SQL > Reporter: Reynold Xin > > regexp_replace(string INITIAL_STRING, string PATTERN, string REPLACEMENT): > string > Returns the string resulting from replacing all substrings in INITIAL_STRING > that match the java regular expression syntax defined in PATTERN with > instances of REPLACEMENT. For example, regexp_replace("foobar", "oo|ar", "") > returns 'fb.' Note that some care is necessary in using predefined character > classes: using '\s' as the second argument will match the letter s; '\\s' is > necessary to match whitespace, etc. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
