Matching certain strings against patterns like:
[A-Z]{1,127}@[A-Z]{1,127}

hangs java.exe
eg match using string:
AAAAA

Tested as follows:

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import org.apache.regexp.RE;

public class testIt
{
        public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
        {
                BufferedReader console = new BufferedReader(
                                                new InputStreamReader
(System.in));     
                
                System.out.println("RE Pattern?: ");
                String input = console.readLine();
                
                RE r = new RE(input);
                while (true)
                {
                        System.out.println("test against?: ");
                        String test = console.readLine();
                        System.out.println("Pattern is: " + test);
                        
                        boolean matched = r.match(test);
                        System.out.println("MATCHED="+matched);
                        
                        String wholeExpr = r.getParen(0);
                        System.out.println("wholeExpr IS: "+ wholeExpr);
                }
        }
}


RE Pattern:
([A-Z]{1,127}@[A-Z]{1,127})

Hangs java.exe when matched against:
AAAAA
