ICU Pluals in a .properties file

Hi, i have a .properties file that contains some strings with ICU Plurals

Example:

{count, plural, one {Apply {count} rule} other {Apply {count} rules}}

I am using the Java Resource parser and using regex in Embedded Content in Trados Studio 2022 to try and markup this string.

I can create multiple regex's for the markup

{count, plural, one {

} other {

}}

{count}

But is there one regex that handles these types of ICU Plurals.

Thanks

    Question improvement suggestion: Provide specific examples of the regex patterns you have tried and clarify what you mean by "handles these types of ICU Plurals."  

    In the meantime, based on the information you have provided, here is a suggested answer to your question:  

    Hello!  

    To create a regex that effectively handles ICU Plurals in your .properties file, you can use a single regex pattern that captures the entire structure of the ICU plural format. Here’s a step-by-step approach:  

    **Step 1:** Define the regex pattern. You can use the following regex to match the ICU plural structure:  

    ```

    \{count,\s*plural,\s*(one\s*\{[^}]*\}|other\s*\{[^}]*\})\}

    ```

    This pattern captures both the "one" and "other" cases within the ICU plural format.

    **Step 2:** Test the regex. Use a regex testing tool to ensure that it correctly matches your ICU plural strings. You can adjust the pattern based on the specific variations you encounter in your .properties file.

    **Step 3:** Implement in Trados Studio. Once you have confirmed that the regex works as intended, you can add it to your Embedded Content settings in Trados Studio 2022. Make sure to test it with your actual .properties file to ensure it behaves as expected.

    **Step 4:** Adjust as necessary. If you find that the regex does not capture all variations of ICU plurals you encounter, you may need to refine the pattern further.

    By following these steps, you should be able to create a regex that effectively handles ICU Plurals in your .properties file. If you have any specific examples or variations that are causing issues, feel free to share them for more tailored assistance!
