Java-specific regular expression testing program [closed]

Question

I'm looking for a regular expression testing program that I had installed on my previous workstation that I am now unable to find anywhere.

It was for java-specific regex's, so I'm pretty sure it was written in Java. There were a few tabs across the top, one of which was the explanation of the different regex terms from the Pattern class in the API.

The top text box was for entering text, the middle text box was for the regex, the bottom text box was where the matches were displayed.

I know that it's not much to go on, but does anyone recognise it?

Answer 2

I don't know any specific desktop program that does it, but I personally am using this website which offers most of the stuff you're looking for (apart from the explanations).

I'd at least give it a look - great program in my opinion. Offers all the important flags, several different strings to test and prints out the java string of the given RE (so not manually inserting \ wherever it's necessary!)
