java pattern 提取文字,Java正则表达式在标记之间提取文本

I have a file with some custom tags and I'd like to write a regular expression to extract the string between the tags. For example if my tag is:

[customtag]String I want to extract[/customtag]

How would I write a regular expression to extract only the string between the tags. This code seems like a step in the right direction:

Pattern p = Pattern.compile("[customtag](.+?)[/customtag]");

Matcher m = p.matcher("[customtag]String I want to extract[/customtag]");

Not sure what to do next. Any ideas? Thanks.

You're on the right track. Now you just need to extract the desired group, as follows:

final Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("(.+?)", Pattern.DOTALL);

final Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher("String I want to extract");

matcher.find();

System.out.println(matcher.group(1)); // Prints String I want to extract

If you want to extract multiple hits, try this:

public static void main(String[] args) {

final String str = "applehelloorangepear";

System.out.println(Arrays.toString(getTagValues(str).toArray())); // Prints [apple, orange, pear]

}

private static final Pattern TAG_REGEX = Pattern.compile("(.+?)", Pattern.DOTALL);

private static List getTagValues(final String str) {

final List tagValues = new ArrayList();

final Matcher matcher = TAG_REGEX.matcher(str);

while (matcher.find()) {

tagValues.add(matcher.group(1));

}

return tagValues;

}

However, I agree that regular expressions are not the best answer here. I'd use XPath to find elements I'm interested in. See The Java XPath API for more info.
