public class PatternPro

extends Pattern

Regular expression based on a minimized deterministic automaton (FSA) and designed as a set of strings.
Use this class to manipulate a reular expression through set oprations or automaton methods
PatternPro differs from Pattern that the contributed set of strings is mutable through the methods addAll, removeAll and retainAll.
Further PaternPro provides access to its PAutomaton through the getAutomaton method. So it is possible to inspect the automaton's states through PAutomaton's methods.

Constructor Detail

PatternPro

public PatternPro()

PatternPro

public PatternPro(PAutomaton automaton)

creates a PatternPro with the given automaton. The automaton will not be cloned: two PatternPro can use the same automaton.

PatternPro

public PatternPro(Pattern p)

copy constructor

PatternPro

public PatternPro(java.lang.String regEx)

Method Detail

setRegEx

public void setRegEx(java.lang.String regEx)

setPattern

public void setPattern(Pattern p)

Deprecated.

if p is an instance of PatternPro use setAutomaton(p.getAutomaton()); else setAutomaton(new PatternPro(p).getAutomaton())

setAutomaton

public void setAutomaton(PAutomaton a)

getPattern

public Pattern getPattern()

Deprecated.

don't needed: you have a PatternPro which extends Pattern. (Pattern)this.clone() has the same effect

getAutomaton

public PAutomaton getAutomaton()

contains

public boolean contains(java.lang.String s,
                        int offset,
                        int length)

Overrides:

contains in class Pattern

                        int offset,
                        int length)

Overrides:
