Preg_Match_All help needed

[amarasatish]

Hai need help regarding this one:
I think the problem is with the $pattern2, I am not knowing the format to write it!! Can anyone help me please

This is the code, my task is to pull out the values of the report type stired in the file: They are stored like this:

username ~false./true.report type1~false./true.report type2.......etc

the report type will be added to a file with a false or true before it depending on user selection in previous step.

$pattern2 = "/^([-\w]{".PERM_TYPE_SEPARATOR."})\s(false.|true.)\s(.*)$/";

if(preg_match_all($pattern2, $entry2, $match))
                {
                    echo "this one is called too";
                for($i = 0; $i < count($match[1]); $i++)
                {
                   echo "This one";
                //if($match[1][$i] == "true.")
                echo $match[2][$i];
                }
                //echo "123";
                    //$metadata[$matches[1][$i]] = $matches[2][$i];
                }

Value of $entry2 at the time of execution

string '~false.123~false.45678~false.67890~false.123456~false.Hai testing~false.I am good~false.Now this should work~false.Plug'... (length=1223)

This is the result I am getting

$match =array
        0 => 
        array
          empty
        1 => 
         array
          empty
        2 => 
        array
          empty
        3 => 
         array
           empty

This is the text file I am actually parsing:
