start 和 end 方法
对单词 "cat" 出现在输入字符串中出现次数进行计数的例子:
import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
public class RegexMatches
{
private static final String REGEX = "\\bcat\\b";
private static final String INPUT =
"cat cat cat cattie cat";
public static void main( String args[] ){
Pattern p = Pattern.compile(REGEX);
Matcher m = p.matcher(INPUT); // 获取 matcher 对象
int count = 0;
while(m.find()) {
count++;
System.out.println("Match number "+count);
System.out.println("start(): "+m.start());
System.out.println("end(): "+m.end());
}
}
}
结果
Match number 1 start(): 0 end(): 3 Match number 2 start(): 4 end(): 7 Match number 3 start(): 8 end(): 11 Match number 4 start(): 19 end(): 22
