Hi,
I have this string for example : "Hello-World! Let's talk-about-you!"
If I want to know the number of "-" (here would be 3) into that string, how could I do that with a transformer?
Thanks!

I'm sure there are a few options, but I would use a StringSearcher and put the matches into a list, then expose the list and count the elements. Like this:

Also FME String Functions might be an option in this case.
A more direct expression flashed. Remove every character except hyphens, and then get the length.
@StringLength(@ReplaceRegEx(@Value(str),[^-]+,"")) - Enthusiast

@StringLength(@ReplaceRegEx(@Value(str),[^-]+,"")) OK great this is exactly what I need.
