Hi there, i am new here....so i need to learn how to communicate properly...
i have been working on java.util.regex bug no. 6520207<http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=6520207>. I found a two line fix and all the tests that come with the openJDK source belonging to the regex package seem to work fine. The change i implemented is the following: Pattern.java at line 3374 inserting * 3374: if (matcher.first == endIndex && seq.charAt(i - 1) == '\n') 3375: return false;* Reason: the "$" pattern matches "a\nb\nc\n" twice. At the end of the last line-terminator as well as at the end of input. Since the second match is matching only the end of input and no real characters, i first check if the new match starts at the end of input, and since this bug only occurs with a '\n' as the last character in the string to be matched, i check for that too. If this is the case then we dont want to match anymore, so return false. Regards ilgo PS: how do i go on from here...?
