--------------------------------------
I opened a [PR|https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/pull/1489]
> RegExp.java - add support for character classes like \w
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-9336
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9336
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core/other
> Reporter: Mark Harwood
> Assignee: Mark Harwood
> Priority: Major
>
> Character classes commonly used in regular expressions like \s for whitespace are not currently supported and may well be returning false negatives because they don't throw any "unsupported" errors.
> The proposal is that the RegExp class add support for the set of character classes [defined by Java's Pattern API|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/regex/pre_char_classes.html]
> I can work on a patch if we think this is something we want to consider.
