如何用C#正则捕获含内部双引号的跨行引号内文本

问题描述 #

我有如下文本：

This part is not import. He said : "I told him: ""Hi"", but
he ignored me. I thought ""Why?"", but that is not
my business. This is the end"
This also is not important and should not be captured.

需要实现：捕获单个双引号包裹的所有文本，忽略其中的双写引号（""），且目标文本可跨3行及以上。期望捕获结果：

I told him: ""Hi"", but
he ignored me. I thought ""Why?"", but that is not
my business. This is the end

我尝试了多个正则表达式，但要么匹配空文本，要么错误捕获内部的双写引号，无法实现需求。

解决方案 #

在C#中，可以通过匹配"非结束单个引号"的逻辑来实现，推荐使用以下正则：

var regex = new Regex(@"(?<=^|.)""((?>[^"""]|""""|[\r\n])*?)""", RegexOptions.Singleline);

正则逻辑解释 #

• (?<=^|.)""：正向预查，确保匹配的是单个双引号（避免把双写引号的其中一半当作起始引号）
• (?>[^"""]|""""|[\r\n])*?：原子组（避免回溯问题），匹配三种内容：
  • [^"""]：任何非双引号的字符
  • """"：双写的引号（作为整体匹配，不会被误判为结束引号）
  • [\r\n]：换行符（支持跨多行文本）
• *?：非贪婪匹配，确保遇到第一个单个双引号时就停止匹配
• ""：匹配结束的单个双引号

完整代码示例 #

using System;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        string input = @"This part is not import. He said : ""I told him: """"Hi"""", but
he ignored me. I thought """"Why?"""", but that is not
my business. This is the end""
This also is not important and should not be captured.";

        var regex = new Regex(@"(?<=^|.)""((?>[^"""]|""""|[\r\n])*?)""", RegexOptions.Singleline);
        Match match = regex.Match(input);
        
        if (match.Success)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("捕获到的内容：");
            Console.WriteLine(match.Groups[1].Value);
        }
        else
        {
            Console.WriteLine("未匹配到目标内容");
        }
    }
}

运行这段代码，会输出你期望的捕获文本。
