  • + Scenario one: Replace the Jakarta ORO regex engine with the standard Java 1.4 engine. Preliminary tests show a 50% speed improvement using the standard engine. This will remove the ORO dependency and bring Validator in line with standard Java regular expressions. However, this requires a move to Java 1.4 as the base required Java version. A good time for this move may be Validator 2.0 when we also change the configuration file semantics.

  • + Much more likely Scenario: + ORO provides a much richer interface to regular expression, such that we don't have + to worry about bit twiddling, this includes a pluggable regex engine. Jeffrey E Friedl states + in Mastering Regular Expressions 2ed, says that in speaking to the ORO developers that they + will likely develop an adapter to the Java 1.4 regex, See page 378. So we get use of ORO and the speed of + Java 1.4 Regex engine. +
