How do I make regular expression not capture what has \} in text? I want you to get all } , but I want it to be escaped with the \ character be discarded, not ignored.
I am trying this expression: [^\]} but it returns a character before } ...
Summary: If you have the \ character before }, discard the catch.
In the comment of @ ViníciusGobboA.deOliveira a negative lookbehind assertion (?<! subexpression) to check the previous character. The syntax in PCRE and .NET is the same.
(?<!\)(\})
It means: Capture a bracket only if there is no backslash before.
Important, groups started with (? are not counted, so the group (\}) will have index 1.
