Imagine this scenario: Users enter a keyword (e.g. hello) in my asp.net mvc application and click search. In the C# code, I create a JavaScript RegExp string (/hello/i), which is then used in a query to search MongoDB. The query looks like this:
db.Posts.find( { "title" : /hello/i } )
This retrieves all posts with hello in their title.
However, if the keyword contains special characters (such as \ or (), the js regexp may be built incorrectly.
Are there any libraries in C# that can help parse this?
