RText | syntax highlighting , code folding

That is correct and expected behavior since . by default in Python re does not match LF chars only, it matches CR (carriage return) chars.

See the re documentation:

.
           (Dot.) In the default mode, this matches any character except a newline. If the DOTALL flag has been specified, this matches any character including a newline.

You can easily check that with the following code:

You need to open the resource file as text rather than with the designer. In solution explorer select the resource script file and hit ctrl+alt+0. You can then cut-and-paste text as usual.

Most of the time when simply laying out a new dialog it is easier to use the designer but editting it as text is much easier when you have existing resources you want to bring into a project.

Note that you will also need to edit resources.h to add the various control symbol names (for example IDC_SLIDER_VOLUME) as well as modifying _APS_NEXT_CONTROL_VALUE to be the next unused value.

Based on the information in the comments, you want to do the following:

1. make a request to the kanka.io API
2. parse the response as JSON, expecting a list of dictionaries
3. select those dictionaries which have a key 'entry_parsed'
4. create a list of the 'name' values for all selected dictionaries

Therefore you should keep¹ only the first line of your code (making the request) and scrap the rest, and use this instead:

Please, try changing of this line:

If you realy have to use str_replace…

Use preg_split to split between HTML tags and plain text:

ptext = str.c_str(); solved the problem

I managed to have my own answer outlined below.

Each time you call storageRef.put(...) it starts an asynchronous operation. Right now your `` doesn't wait for these asynchronous operations to complete, and instead returns the list of URLS before it's been populated.

The easiest way to see this is by adding some simple logging to your code:
