File.separatorChar and regexes.

R

Roedy Green

You will need some code like this if you want to include separator
character in your regexes, since \ has to be quoted in regexes.
You might not catch this problem if you are developing on a platform
where / is the default.

private static final
String sepStr = File .separatorChar == '\\' ? "\\\\" : String.valueOf
( File.separatorChar );

private static final
Pattern slashSplitter = Pattern .compile( sepStr );
