RegEx question has me stumped
Hi All, I'm fairly new to Regular Expressions, and have made some decent progress, but this one has me scratching my head. I'm trying to match the class name in my scripts as shown in the examples below. Any ideas?

Thanks!

:: Looking for a regex to match the red text ::
import lib.loadManager.xml.XmlLoader;
import lib.loadManager.ImageLoader;
import lib.LoadProgressDisp;
import MainArea;

Code:
sed 's#.*[ .]\(.*\);$#\1#' myFile

Is there a way to do it without sed?

This is not a regexp, but if you want to extract only the red text try:

Code:
source.txt
---------
:: Looking for a regex to match the red text ::
import lib.loadManager.xml.XmlLoader;
import lib.loadManager.ImageLoader;
import lib.LoadProgressDisp;
import MainArea;



awk -F"[ .;]" '/^import / { print $(NF-1); }' source.txt

Output
------
XmlLoader
ImageLoader
LoadProgressDisp
MainArea

These both look good, thanks for your time, unfortunately, the application requires a regular expression. (Textmate)

Code:
[^ .][^ .]*$
