Thx, for your hints. I guess will review our decision. We currently use regular expressions not very much right now, but I guess this will change in future. I'm currently doing the first steps using them, and I can't image a life without regexp in dealing with strings. In context of XML Schematas like XML Schema or Relax NG, the use of regular expressions will increase, too. Ok! I think we have a look at toolkits you suggest, be we will keep our I one this project ;-). If my knowlege about building a regex-machine growth, I consider to join your development team. about assert: Yes I have to change some old JUnit code know, too. It wasn't a good dicision to keep that word unreserved in ealier Java Versions.... :-/ bye & thx toby -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
