I already use quickRex, a wonderful and handy tool but I didn't know
which flavour did I have to use, so I was confused about that.
About the \p{javaLowerCase}\p{javaUpperCase}, it seems to have
problems with 'ñ' spanish letter and letters with graphical accents.
Maybe I did something wrong. I finally put:
nombre-regexp=^[\p{javaLowerCase}\p{javaUpperCase}\p{javaWhitespace}]+$
apellidos-regexp=^[\p{javaLowerCase}\p{javaUpperCase}\p{javaWhitespace}-]+$
Only added the whitespace for composite names to be possible.
Anyway, the other pattern seems to work perfectly now.
If someone is interested, these are the patterns I use:
nombre-regexp=^([a-zÑñçÇA-ZáéíóúÁÉÍÓÚ ])+
apellidos-regexp=^([a-zÑñçÇA-ZáéíóúÁÉÍÓÚ -])+
Almost identical to the Alejandro's one.
Thanks, Thiago, Martin
and Alejandro.
