Reading Lines from a String Using a Regular Expression
This example demonstrates how to read lines from a CharSequence. The
lines can be terminated with any of the legal line termination
character sequences: \r, \r\n, or \n.
CharSequence inputStr = "a\rb"; // Mac
inputStr = "a\r\nb"; // Windows
inputStr = "a\nb"; // Unix
// Compile the pattern
String patternStr = "^(.*)$";
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(patternStr, Pattern.MULTILINE);
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(inputStr);
// Read the lines
while (matcher.find()) {
// Get the line with the line termination character sequence
String lineWithTerminator = matcher.group(0);
// Get the line without the line termination character sequence
String lineWithoutTerminator = matcher.group(1);
}
