java中正则表达式$的使用,Java中的正则表达式是否默认使用^和$字符锚定？

From my understanding of regular expressions, the string "00###" has to match with "[0-9]", but not with "^[0-9]$". But it doesn't work with Java regexp's.

After some investigating of this problem I found the following information (http://www.wellho.net/solutions/java-regular-expressions-in-java.html):

It might appear that Java regular

expressions are default anchored with

both a ^ and $ character.

Can we be sure that this is true for all versions of JDK? And can this mode be turned off (i.e. to disable default anchoring with ^ and $)?

As the article you linked to explains, it depends on the function you call. If you want to add ^ and $ by default, use String#matches or Matcher#matches. If you don't want that, use the Matcher#find method instead.

import java.util.regex.*;

public class Example

{

public static void main(String[] args)

{

System.out.println("Matches: " + "abc".matches("a+"));

Matcher matcher = Pattern.compile("a+").matcher("abc");

System.out.println("Find: " + matcher.find());

}

}

Output:

Matches: false

Find: true
