Regular Expressions in WebSphere

Posted: Jan 6, 2005 1:51 PM

I am having a problem with compiling my Java code in Websphere when i use the regex (regular expressions) objects in certain ways. 

Here is a sample of the code.. 

import java.util.regex.*; 
import java.io.*; 
import java.lang.*; 
. 
. 
. 
P attern pPhone = Pattern.compile("some pattern here"); 
Matcher mPhone = pPhone.matcher("some"); 
boolean bMatch = mPhone.matches(); 

I get the error on the second line when trying to use the "matcher" function. The error message is.. 

The method matcher(java.lang.CharSequence) in the type java.util.regex.Pattern is not applicable for the arguments (java.lang.String) 

It will not let me use a string in the matcher function which takes a CharSequence. But a CharSequence is an interface that implements a String ...so I don't get it. Note that this code will compile in both JBuilder and TextPad even, but not in WebSphere 5.0. 

Any help on this would be appreciated! 
Thanks

Robin
