Hey,
What I am making:
A c# dedicated host config editor
What I did and wich worked, is splitting my content on \n and just read every line and if it started with / and contained = then I read it out and print it on a form.
You could wonder, why not making a static form? Well that's easy... this method will automaticly "read" new config parameters if another one gets added...
However, to get to the point, I was trying to get rid of my noobish may of reading those configs and tried regular expressions... However it's not working right...
Since each "config" block matches this pattern:
Tho it doesn't seem to find anything... anyone knows what it might be?

Since each "config" block matches this pattern:
Example:
// optional: local specified ip address
/ip=95.211.128.30
Pattern:
// *description*
/*name*=*value*
My code:
Regex test = new Regex(@"\n// (?<description>\w+)\n/(?<name>\w+)=(?<value>\w+)");
MatchCollection coll = test.Matches(content);
foreach (Match match in coll)
{
Label lbl = new Label();
lbl.Text = match.Groups["name"].Value + "<br>";
lbl.Text += match.Groups["description"].Value + "<br>";
lbl.Text += match.Groups["value"].Value + "<br>";
customConfigurator.Controls.Add(lbl);
}Tho it doesn't seem to find anything... anyone knows what it might be?
