extract substring in java using regex

Question

I need to extract "URPlus1_S2_3" from the string:

"Last one: http://abc.imp/Basic2#URPlus1_S2_3,"

Can someone please help me? I am using regex for the first time.

Answer 1

Try

Pattern p = Pattern.compile("#([^,]*)");
Matcher m = p.matcher(myString);
if (m.find()) {
  doSomethingWith(m.group(1));  // The matched substring
}
