A matter of comparison
Hi,
I am posting on both groups as I am deciding. How does ORO and RegExp compare to the regexp package in Java? Pros and Cons?
I am looking for comparitive info (speed, space, features) to decide which I should pick. Of course, I will try to search
for articles which deal with these topics, but any input based on real world experience would be appreciated.
waiting for reply,

Read the archives there are several posts on this, with reasonably details
comparisons. From memory I believe that there were instances where Oro was
faster and instances where Java Regexp was faster depending on the input and
the regular expression used. But read the archive theres more detail there.

I'm a very happy oro user because it matches the perl5.x regexps best.
Speed is not really an issue for me as I use it merely in batch like
processes. Rarely in reallife internet apps.
I would recommend boycotting Sun and their regexp, as they ccuurently
copy-paste all the nice open source code in a Micro$oft way (without the
$$). Besides that a lot of java programmers still use 1.3, using 1.4
regexp would make your code downwards incompatible. On the other hand I
remember a mail from Daniel F S @ some point stating that oro is slower
than sun 1.4 regexp.
I wouldnt use jakarta regexp, as I ve never seen being used. Oro is
supplied in many industry packages, and I would consider it the industry
standard for this moment.
Maybe you should use both and see which one you like best!
Good luck,
Jeroen.

I'm a very happy oro user because it matches the perl5.x regexps best.
Speed is not really an issue for me as I use it merely in batch like
processes. Rarely in reallife internet apps.
I would recommend boycotting Sun and their regexp, as they ccuurently
copy-paste all the nice open source code in a Micro$oft way (without the
$$). Besides that a lot of java programmers still use 1.3, using 1.4
regexp would make your code downwards incompatible. On the other hand I

I wouldnt use jakarta regexp, as I ve never seen being used. Oro is

Good luck,
