Method Detail

isNegatedPattern

public static boolean isNegatedPattern(Pattern pattern)

Check if the specified Pattern is the result of negatePatternString(String). This method assumes the pattern was not hand-coded but rather was automatically-generated, such that its non-automated parts come from XSD regular expressions. If this constraint is violated, this method may result false positives.

Parameters:

pattern - Pattern to check

Returns:

True if this pattern is a negation.

Throws:

NullPointerException - if pattern is null

IllegalArgumentException - if the pattern does not conform to expected structure

negatePatternString

public static String negatePatternString(String pattern)

Create a Pattern expression which performs inverted match to the specified pattern. The input pattern is expected to be a valid regular expression passing Pattern.compile(String) and to have both start and end of string anchors as the first and last characters.

Parameters:

pattern - Pattern regular expression to negate

Returns:

Negated regular expression

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the pattern does not conform to expected structure

NullPointerException - if pattern is null
