Hello,
I would like to have a function that retrieve matching strings in the same way as with
java.util.regex (java 1.4.2).
Example:
f('^.*(xx?)\\.([0-9]*)$','abcxx.785')
=>
c('xx','785')
First of all: Is it possible to achiev this with grep(... perl=TRUE,value=TRUE )?
As I would call this function very often with large data, I'm reluctant to use Sjava
for performance reasons.
Is this a wrong assumption that using Java directly would be slower or use more memory
than to have a native R function?
Does someone already has a solution for this :)
Thanks,
Marc Mamin
