[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-160?page=comments#action_12361999 ]
Doug Cutting commented on NUTCH-160: ------------------------------------ +1 I like this patch. I don't see a need for us to use oro anywhere, since Java now has good builtin regex support. And Java's regex's are faster in many cases, not just this: http://tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2004/08/22/PJre There are a few places in which Java's regex's are incompatible with Perl 5 regex's, documented in the "Comparison to Perl 5" section of: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html So this change is not completely back-compatible. Any objections? > Use standard Java Regex library rather than org.apache.oro.text.regex > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NUTCH-160 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-160 > Project: Nutch > Type: Improvement > Versions: 0.8-dev > Reporter: Rod Taylor > Attachments: regex.patch > > org.apache.oro.text.regex is based on perl 5.003 which has some corner cases > which perform poorly.
