java 正则括号 转义,Java正则表达式和转义元字符

I am trying to write regexp for matching token embedded between two curly braces. For example if buffer Hello {World}, I want to get "World" token out of String. When I use regexp like \{*\} eclipse shows a error messages as

Invalid escape sequence (valid ones are \b \t \n \f \r \" \' \\)

Can anyone please help me? I am new to using regular expressions.

You should be able to extract the token from a string such as "{token}" by using a regexp of {(\w*)}.

The parentheses () form a capturing group around the zero or more word characters captured by \w*.

If the string matches, extract the actual token from the capturing group by calling the group() method on the Matcher class.

Pattern p = Pattern.compile("\\{(\\w*)\\}");

Matcher m = p.matcher("{some_interesting_token}");

String token = null;

if (m.matches()) {

token = m.group();

}

Note that token may be an empty string because regex {\w*}" will match "{}". If you want to match on at least one token characters, use {\w+} instead.
