正则表达式正在捕获整个字符串

我正在使用以下正则表达式：

(public|private +)?function +([a-zA-Z_$][0-9a-zA-Z_$]*) *\\(([0-9a-zA-Z_$, ]*)\\) *{(.*)}

匹配以下字符串：

public function messenger(text){
sendMsg(text);
}
private function sendMsg(text){
alert(text);
}

（字符串中没有换行符，它们在正则表达式运行之前被转换为空格）

我希望它捕获这两个函数，但它正在捕获： 1 美元：“” $2：“信使” $3：“文本” $4: " sendMsg(text); } 私有函数 sendMsg(text){alert(text); "

顺便说一句，我正在使用 JavaScript。

因为您在其他线程中接受了我的（错误）答案，所以我觉得自己有义务发布正确的解决方案。这不会很快也不会很短，但希望能有所帮助。

如果必须的话，下面是我如何为类 C 语言编写一个基于正则表达式的解析器。

<script>
/* 
Let's start with this simple utility function. It's a
kind of stubborn version of String.replace() - it
checks the string over and over again, until nothing
more can be replaced
*/

function replaceAll(str, regexp, repl) {
    str = str.toString();
    while(str.match(regexp))
        str = str.replace(regexp, repl);
    return str;
}

/*
Next, we need a function that removes specific
constructs from the text and replaces them with
special "markers", which are "invisible" for further
processing. The matches are collected in a buffer so
that they can be restored later.
*/

function isolate(type, str, regexp, buf) {
    return replaceAll(str, regexp, function($0) {
        buf.push($0);
        return "<<" + type + (buf.length - 1) + ">>";
    });
} 

/*
The following restores "isolated" strings from the
buffer:
*/

function restore(str, buf) {
    return replaceAll(str, /<<[a-z]+(\d+)>>/g, function($0, $1) {
        return buf[parseInt($1)];
    });
}

/*
Write down the grammar. Javascript regexps are
notoriously hard to read (there is no "comment"
option like in perl), therefore let's use more
readable format with spacing and substitution
variables. Note that "$string" and "$block" rules are
actually "isolate()" markers.
*/

var grammar = {
    $nothing: "",
    $space:  "\\s",
    $access: "public $space+ | private $space+ | $nothing",
    $ident:  "[a-z_]\\w*",
    $args:   "[^()]*",
    $string: "<<string [0-9]+>>",
    $block:  "<<block [0-9]+>>",
    $fun:    "($access) function $space* ($ident) $space* \\( ($args) \\) $space* ($block)"
}

/*
This compiles the grammar to pure regexps - one for
each grammar rule:
*/

function compile(grammar) {
    var re = {};
    for(var p in grammar)
        re[p] = new RegExp(
            replaceAll(grammar[p], /\$\w+/g, 
                    function($0) { return grammar[$0] }).
            replace(/\s+/g, ""), 
        "gi");
    return re;
}

/*
Let's put everything together
*/

function findFunctions(code, callback) {
    var buf = [];

    // isolate strings
    code = isolate("string", code, /"(\\.|[^\"])*"/g, buf);

    // isolate blocks in curly brackets {...}
    code = isolate("block",  code, /{[^{}]*}/g, buf);

    // compile our grammar
    var re = compile(grammar);

    // and perform an action for each function we can find
    code.replace(re.$fun, function() {
        var p = [];
        for(var i = 1; i < arguments.length; i++)
            p.push(restore(arguments[i], buf));
        return callback.apply(this, p)
    });
}
</script>

现在我们准备测试了。我们的解析器必须能够处理转义字符串和任意嵌套块。

<code>
public function blah(arg1, arg2) {
    if("some string" == "public function") {
        callAnother("{hello}")
        while(something) {
            alert("escaped \" string");
        }
    }
}

function yetAnother() { alert("blah") }
</code>

<script>
window.onload = function() {
    var code = document.getElementsByTagName("code")[0].innerHTML;
    findFunctions(code, function(access, name, args, body) {
        document.write(
            "<br>" + 
            "<br> access= " + access +
            "<br> name= "   + name +
            "<br> args= "   + args +
            "<br> body= "   + body
        )
    });
}
</script>
