Need some assistance on Regular expression in python

[vijay swaminathan]

Hi Experts,


I'm a new bie to python and need some assistance in the usage of regular
expression.

I have a string something like this:

New builds available Version: 20120418-abcdef-1 (based on SDK 0.0.0.1)

from the above string I want to extract the following text using regular
expression

20120418-abcdef-1
0.0.0.1

I can do this by split but I feel it is an ineffective way of doing this. I
tried using regular expression but could not narrow down.

for example, I used

    sdk_version = re.search(r"SDK(.*)", lines,)
                        print sdk_version.group(1)

but this gave the version 0.0.0.1) along with the paranthesis I did not
know how to elimate ')' .. Need some help here..

Thanks
-Vijay
