Class JakartaRegexpCapabilities

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.apache.lucene.search.regex.JakartaRegexpCapabilities

public class JakartaRegexpCapabilities
extends Object

Implementation tying Jakarta Regexp to RegexQuery. Thanks to some internals of Jakarta Regexp, this has a solid prefix() implementation.


Constructor Summary
JakartaRegexpCapabilities()
           
 
Method Summary
 void compile(String pattern)
          Called by the constructor of RegexTermEnum allowing implementations to cache a compiled version of the regular expression pattern.
 boolean equals(Object o)
           
 int hashCode()
           
 boolean match(String string)
           
 String prefix()
          A wise prefix implementation can reduce the term enumeration (and thus performance) of RegexQuery dramatically!
