Here it is , I tested this code with the values in comments at end of statements and it was working but I think it doesn't work well with my actual string...
CharSequence inputStr = "codebase='formbuilderocx.cab#version=4,2,0,0' viewastext id='formbuilderocx' >"; // "a b c a b c"; String patternStr = "[0-9][0-9]+(,[0-9][0-9]){3}"; //"a"; String replacementStr = "3,7,0,5"; // Compile regular expression Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(patternStr); // Replace all occurrences of pattern in input Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(inputStr); String output = matcher.replaceAll(replacementStr); System.out.println( "input" + inputStr); System.out.println( "output" + output); -----Original Message----- From: Mark Lundquist [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 04, 2005 1:17 PM To: Ant Users List Subject: Re: regular expression On Mar 4, 2005, at 10:12 AM, Radha Sangal wrote: > It never found/matched that expression in the string.

Why don't you post your code, and then maybe someone can point out what is wrong with it. cheers, -ml- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
