Package org.apache.anteater.util.regexp Description

Utility classes for playing with regular expressions. Provides a simplifying abstraction layer between classes that need regexp capabilities (primarily the various matchers), and various Regexp libraries available.

There is a specification and implementation of a stateful bean for doing regexp matches. The interface is RegexpUtil, and the implementation based on Jakarta ORO is ORORegexpUtil. There is a factory, RegexpUtilFactory, for retrieving an instance of RegexpUtil, which currently just returns an ORORegexpUtil.
