It is useful for text analysis and processing. apt-line: deb http://www21.freeweb.ne.jp/computer/torakun/deb/ ./ package: liboro-java There are some regular expression library for Java (I already ITP regexp). Then, someone may wonder what are difference between them. I describe comparison of following three libraries briefly; Jakarta-ORO: BSD Style License fastest of the three(GNU-Regexp,ORO,Regexp). high compatibility with perl5:) known as famous Java Regular Expression library 'ORO Matcher'. GNU-Regexp: GPL. perl and posix style regular expression. slowest of the three(;_; Jakarta-Regexp: BSD Style License posix like regular expression (but compatibility isn't so good) basic function and useful document. It make easy to learn. PS. I already ITP'd Jakarta-Regexp but I canceled then. regards. ------------ Takashi Okamoto Applicant for Debian in NM database.
