Failure in field validation based on mask definition (regex?)

[rennecke]

I discovered that the field validation is not fully correct.
The definition of a field holding the MAC address uses regex as proposed in the hint to the mask definition: [a-f0-9]{2}-[a-f0-9]{2}-[a-f0-9]{2}-[a-f0-9]{2}-[a-f0-9]{2}-[a-f0-9]{2} - see attachment.
This works well in a regex tester (http://www.regexpal.com).
The validation in the program does not work well. The string "xx-23-dd-ff-12-3e" is validated true in the application (see attachment).
Did I define the mask wrongly or is there a bug?
Thanks for your feedback.

I think you should put

Code: Select all

[a-f0-9]{2}-[a-f0-9]{2}-[a-f0-9]{2}-[a-f0-9]{2}-[a-f0-9]{2}-[a-f0-9]{2} 

in mask input filed

Mask definitions field just to define your own symbols for mask that can be used in mask input field. See tooltip at the bottom of the definitions input field
