RE: [Bug 377] Changed - Convert regexp test suite to JUnit BugRat Report#667

I noticed you sent the bug to the ant list as well.
Did you feel that the test would be best served when run through ant as well?

I noticed that ant used regexp for the mappers now to ensure that the mappers are goig to work 
you need a test suite in ant to make sure that the selected regular expression package works.

I think a JUnit test perhaps with ant task wrapper is most suitable and is available for both 
regexp and oro to use.

Would like anyone elses ideas. Otherwise it just what i thinks best
and im not always right :>

My suggestion would be to send a patch to the list. Will get included and I will change what I 
need to. But your contribution will then be noted as you have put some time in.
