Also, Java is far stricter on syntax fo= r regular expressions than anything else I've seen. You can't just test your stuff at a unix prompt or using grep to see if it works. That's just the fir= st step. I generally use the vi find command.

Hi,

 

 

Has anyone used the "matches" operator?=

In our application we need to support startWith, endsWith operators for string variable. I am thinking of using matches operator. But the 'matches' operator is not working. I am trying the followi= ng code

 

rule "Hello World"

    = ;  when

    = ;        m : Message(message matches "Hello*")

    = ;  then

    = ;        System.out.println( "Hello World"); <= /o:p>

end

 

 

 

And the value set in the message is "Hello Wo= rld". But it is not going into the then clause.

 

If anyone has already used matches operator I woul= d like to know how we can use it for startswith, endsWith. How do we specify t= he regular expression? Can we use "*"=

 

 

Thanks,

Ashwini
