Compiling a Pattern with Multiple Flags : Pattern « Regular Expressions « Java






Compiling a Pattern with Multiple Flags

 
Multiple flags must be combined using the or operator (|).
import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {

    CharSequence inputStr = "Abc\ndef";
    String patternStr = "abc$";

    // Compile with multiline and case-insensitive enabled
    Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(patternStr, Pattern.MULTILINE | Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE);
    Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(inputStr);
    boolean matchFound = matcher.find(); 
  }
}
