QRegExp lastIndexOf always minimal?

Hmm... this indeed is strange but I can believe the behaviour is intentional.

You may obtain the result you want using this code:

#include <QString>
#include <QRegExp>
 
int main(int argc, char **argv){
  QString string = "coolfilename02.153.ext";
  QRegExp rx("([0-9]+)(\\.[^\\.]*)$");
  rx.setMinimal(true);
  rx.indexIn(string);
  qDebug(qPrintable(QString("0: %1 1: %2 2: %3").arg(rx.cap(0)).arg(rx.cap(1)).arg(rx.cap(2))));
  return 0;
}

#include <QString>
#include <QRegExp>

int main(int argc, char **argv){
  QString string = "coolfilename02.153.ext";
  QRegExp rx("([0-9]+)(\\.[^\\.]*)$");
  rx.setMinimal(true);
  rx.indexIn(string);
  qDebug(qPrintable(QString("0: %1 1: %2 2: %3").arg(rx.cap(0)).arg(rx.cap(1)).arg(rx.cap(2))));
  return 0;
}

Thanks Guys - seems I've got a whole bunch of solutions now :-)

It also hit me last night while trying to fall asleep (why does code not working do that to me?)

Thanks again,
