[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBRULES-1226) allow capture of match groups in 'matches' clauses

[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-1226?page=comments#action_12421330 ] Tom?? Z?lusk? commented on JBRULES-1226: ---------------------------------------- Since this topic is about generalized binding of variables rather than regular expressions, I would appreciate such a functionality too. It would be very helpful to write something like this: when Fact($matcher : Pattern.compile("(a*)b(c*)").matcher(value), eval($matcher.matches())) then System.out.println(matcher.group(1)); Or may be even sugar: when Fact($matcher : value matches "(a*)b(c*)") then System.out.println(matcher.group(1)); -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
