Hi, I have a sql query in which all variables declared as :variable should be changed to ${variable}.
for example this sql: select * from table where ":x" = "1" and :y=2 and field in (:string) and time between :from and :to should be translated to: select * from table where "${x}" = "1" and ${y} = 2 and field in ( ${string} ) and time between ${from} and ${to} As far as I have come is to find the group as (:(.+?)\b) and than replace it as ${$2} (it would be nice if before and after the ${variable} it is always one space) For opposite change (from ${variable} notation to :variable) I am using: sql.replace('${', ':').replace('}', '') Can someone please help?
