Can I use the found pattern in my replace function?

[geri777]

I have a config.js file containing a version number. I would like to increment this number with each build.

I would like to do something like this:

match: /'version' : '([0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+)'/g,
    replacement: function () {
        var version = $2++;
        return '\'version\' : \'' + version + '\''; 
    }

Is there a possibility to get the match result into the function?

Thanks!

hi pal ...

why no use an version number tag an update each time you want ??? something like:
