Filtering Values Using Regular Expressions
Each dynamic variable assignment can be filtered using a Java regular expression. This is done by the nested regex element.

<dynamicvariables>
<variable name="previous.version" jarfile="${INSTALL_PATH}/${INSTALL_SUBPATH}/libs/config.jar"
entry="release.properties" type="options"
key="release.version"
checkonce="false" ignorefailure="true">
<regex regexp="([0-9]+(\.[0-9]+){2})" select="\1" defaultvalue="none"/>
</variable>
<variable name="RegExTest.Select.Windows" checkonce="true"
regkey="HKLM\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Session Manager\\Environment"
regvalue="Path">
<regex regexp="([^;]*)(.*)"
select="\1"
defaultValue="(unmatched)"
casesensitive="false"/>
</variable>
<variable name="RegExTest.ReplaceFirst.Windows" checkonce="true"
regkey="HKLM\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Session Manager\\Environment"
regvalue="Path">
<regex regexp="([^;]*)"
