  30 /**
  31  * An engine that performs match operations on a {@link java.lang.CharSequence
  32  * </code>character sequence<code>} by interpreting a {@link Pattern}.
  33  *
  34  * <p> A matcher is created from a pattern by invoking the pattern's {@link
  35  * Pattern#matcher matcher} method.  Once created, a matcher can be used to
  36  * perform three different kinds of match operations:
  37  *
  38  * <ul>
  39  *
  40  *   <li><p> The {@link #matches matches} method attempts to match the entire
  41  *   input sequence against the pattern.  </p></li>
  42  *
  43  *   <li><p> The {@link #lookingAt lookingAt} method attempts to match the
  44  *   input sequence, starting at the beginning, against the pattern.  </p></li>
  45  *
  46  *   <li><p> The {@link #find find} method scans the input sequence looking for
  47  *   the next subsequence that matches the pattern.  </p></li>
  48  *
  49  * </ul>
  50  *
  51  * <p> Each of these methods returns a boolean indicating success or failure.
  52  * More information about a successful match can be obtained by querying the
  53  * state of the matcher.
  54  *
  55  * <p> A matcher finds matches in a subset of its input called the
  56  * <i>region</i>. By default, the region contains all of the matcher's input.
  57  * The region can be modified via the{@link #region region} method and queried
  58  * via the {@link #regionStart regionStart} and {@link #regionEnd regionEnd}
  59  * methods. The way that the region boundaries interact with some pattern
  60  * constructs can be changed. See {@link #useAnchoringBounds
  61  * useAnchoringBounds} and {@link #useTransparentBounds useTransparentBounds}
  62  * for more details.
  63  *
  64  * <p> This class also defines methods for replacing matched subsequences with
  65  * new strings whose contents can, if desired, be computed from the match
  66  * result.  The {@link #appendReplacement appendReplacement} and {@link
  67  * #appendTail appendTail} methods can be used in tandem in order to collect
  68  * the result into an existing string buffer, or the more convenient {@link
  69  * #replaceAll replaceAll} method can be used to create a string in which every
  70  * matching subsequence in the input sequence is replaced.
  71  *
  72  * <p> The explicit state of a matcher includes the start and end indices of
  73  * the most recent successful match.  It also includes the start and end
  74  * indices of the input subsequence captured by each <a
  75  * href="Pattern.html#cg">capturing group</a> in the pattern as well as a total
  76  * count of such subsequences.  As a convenience, methods are also provided for
  77  * returning these captured subsequences in string form.
  78  *
  79  * <p> The explicit state of a matcher is initially undefined; attempting to
  80  * query any part of it before a successful match will cause an {@link
  81  * IllegalStateException} to be thrown.  The explicit state of a matcher is
  82  * recomputed by every match operation.
  83  *
  84  * <p> The implicit state of a matcher includes the input character sequence as
  85  * well as the <i>append position</i>, which is initially zero and is updated
  86  * by the {@link #appendReplacement appendReplacement} method.
  87  *
  88  * <p> A matcher may be reset explicitly by invoking its {@link #reset()}
  89  * method or, if a new input sequence is desired, its {@link
  90  * #reset(java.lang.CharSequence) reset(CharSequence)} method.  Resetting a
  91  * matcher discards its explicit state information and sets the append position
  92  * to zero.
  93  *
  94  * <p> Instances of this class are not safe for use by multiple concurrent
  95  * threads. </p>
