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.
