How can I use Oracle regular expressions in Java to get the same result or how can I build Java regular expression based on Oracle regular expression.
Oracle:
declare
str1 varchar2(50);
begin
str1 := REGEXP_SUBSTR('500 Oracle Parkway, Redwood Shores, CA', ',[^,]+,');
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(str1);
end;
Result:
, Redwood Shores,
Java:
String str1 = null;
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(",[^,]+,");
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher("500 Oracle Parkway, Redwood Shores, CA");
if (matcher.find())
{
str1 = matcher.group(1);
}
But this regular expression doesn't work in Java. It fails with this exception:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: No group 1
at java.util.regex.Matcher.group(Matcher.java:538)
at mousemover.Playground.main(Playground.java:16)
Maybe there is some algorithm to map regex?
