HI All,
I've been using the basic split for a while - where I just parse out a string into an array based on a simple token like " " or ",".
So of course a customer tries this: \\.br\
which fails miserably.
I need to parse to an array of lines. The string for example looks like this:
"LINE 1\\.br\\LINE 2\\.br\\LINE 3\\.br\\LINE 4\\.br\\"
and this fails with java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException: Unexpected internal error
.
Any ideas?
