How to replace a regexp group with a post proceed value?
- by Pentium10
I have this code to
public static String ProcessTemplateInput(String input, int count) {
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("\\{([^\\}]+)\\}");
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(input);
while (matcher.find()) {
String newelem=SelectRandomFromTemplate(matcher.group(1), count);
}
return input;
}
Input is:
String s1 = "planets {Sun|Mercury|Venus|Earth|Mars|Jupiter|Saturn|Uranus|Neptune}{?|!|.} Is this ok? ";
Output example:
String s2="planets Sun, Mercury. Is this ok? ";
I would like to replace the {} set of templates with the picked value returned by the method. How do I do that in Java1.5?
