Regex - check if pattern found

[Essam Daoud]

Hi

This code is expected to test a string to find if a regex pattern matches. I am not able to pull it together. Please help.  Thanks

  #include <RegularExpressions\Regex.mqh>
  string pattern="\d*\\|\event\b";  // test for the string "4|event" or "25|event" 
  Regex *rx = new Regex(pattern, RegexOptions::IgnoreCase); 

Compile time errors, first one is:

Regex - undeclared identifier

However the step is take from the example in https://www.mql5.com/en/code/15242

Not sure if this will work but try this:

\d+\|event\b
