Untested, but probably something like this:

<propertyregex property="userID"
              input="${full.name}"
              regexp="(.).*\s(.*)"
              replace="\1\2"
              casesensitive="false"/>

Subject: Need help writing regular expression??


Hello all,

Quick question... I need write a regular expression to
generate <FirstLetterOfFirstName><LastName> from a
full name (i.e. <First Name> <Last Name>)

Given the string:  Ninju Bohra

I want:  NBohra

What is the regular expression (if any) I would use?

<property name="full.name" value="Ninju Bohra"/>

<propertyregex property="userID"
              input="${full.name}"
              regexp="<need help here>"
              select="\1"
              casesensitive="false" />
    
Thanx,

Ninju
