public RegexFilter pattern(Pattern pattern)

The regular expression

Parameters:

Returns:

this

caseInsensitive

public RegexFilter caseInsensitive()

Case insensitivity to match upper and lower cases.

Returns:

extended

public RegexFilter extended()

“Extended” capability to ignore all white space characters in the $regex pattern unless escaped or included in a character class.

Additionally, it ignores characters in-between and including an un-escaped hash/pound (#) character and the next new line, so that you may include comments in complicated patterns. This only applies to data characters; white space characters may never appear within special character sequences in a pattern.

The x option does not affect the handling of the VT character (i.e. code 11).

Returns:

this

multiline

public RegexFilter multiline()

For patterns that include anchors (i.e. ^ for the start, $ for the end), match at the beginning or end of each line for strings with multiline values. Without this option, these anchors match at beginning or end of the string.

Returns:

this

special

public RegexFilter special()

Allows the dot character (i.e. .) to match all characters including newline characters.

Returns:

this
