I'm new to regex in Java and I can't figure out how to include named capture groups in an expression. I'm writing a ScrewTurn Image Converter for Confluence's Universal Wiki Converter. This is what I have:
String image = "\\[image(?<align>auto)?\\|\\|{UP\\(((?<namespace>\\w+)\\.)?(?<pagename>[\\w-]+)\\)}(?<filename>[\\w- ]+\\.[\\w]+)\\]";
Pattern imagePattern = Pattern.compile(image, Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE);
It's throwing this exception in Pattern.comiple():
java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException: Unknown look-behind group
near index 19
\[image(?<align>auto)?\|\|{UP\(((?<namespace>\w+)\.)?(?<pagename>[\w-]+)\)}(?<filename>[\w- ]+\.[\w]+)\]
^
I've used named capture groups like this before in C# (?<namedgroup>asdf), but not in Java. What am I missing?
