Generally for simple matches like this I just use the built in
java.lang.String matches() method like:
String s = "aaaaab";
boolean b = s.matches("a*b");
System.out.println(b);
prints "true" on my 1.4.2_03 JDK.
BTW, this also works fine on my machine:
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
boolean b = Pattern.matches("a*b", "aaaaab");
System.out.println(b);
}
}
Did you import java.util.regex.Pattern in your test case?

Hmmm...speaking of regex...
Tried using this example in the Sun 1.4.2 docs in my code:
boolean b = Pattern.matches("a*b", "aaaaab");
And got the compile error "cannot resolve symbol : variable Pattern"
Just double-checked my java version in terminal; it's 1.4.2_03.
Ahhh, then you should check out Sun's Java site. The javadocs there
are
very good. If you're using 1.4.2, the new build in regex functionality
might be of use too.

Right, I'm using String not NSString.
