I am trying to replace the node name with regular expressions on Notepad++. I hace something similar to this:

<Vehicle_name color="green" type="sub" extra="panoramic roof">
    <InvoiceDateTime InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <InvoiceDateTime InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <InvoiceDateTime InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <InvoiceDateTime InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
  </Vehicle>

 <Vehicle_brand color="green" type="sub" extra="panoramic roof">
    <AuthorizationCode InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <AuthorizationCode InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <AuthorizationCode InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <AuthorizationCode InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
  </Vehicle>

And I want to get this

<Vehicle_name color="green" type="sub" extra="panoramic roof">
    <InvoiceDateTime InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <InvoiceDateTime InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <InvoiceDateTime InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <InvoiceDateTime InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
  </Vehicle_name>

 <Vehicle_brand color="green" type="sub" extra="panoramic roof">
    <AuthorizationCode InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <AuthorizationCode InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <AuthorizationCode InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
    <AuthorizationCode InvoiceChargeCents="63" OptionCode="nothing"/>
  </Vehicle_brand>

  • Ctrl+H
  • Find what: <Vehicle(_\w+).+?</Vehicle\K>
  • Replace with: $1>
  • CHECK Match case
  • CHECK Wrap around
  • CHECK Regular expression
  • CHECK . matches newline
  • Replace all

Explanation:

<Vehicle            # literally
(_\w+)              # group 1, 1 or more word character
.+?                 # 1 or more any character, not greedy
</Vehicle           # literally
\K                  # forget all we have seen until this position
>                   # >

Replacement:

$1              # content of group 1
>               # >
