Re: A matter of comparison

2003-09-18 Thread jdijkmei
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.

 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.
