java regex extract numbers with boundary and optional space -


i trying extract 12 , 15.

ab cd 12 abc/15 def .*\bab cd\b\s?(\d+)\s?\babc\b[/](\d+)\s?\bdef\b 

it not working not sure how match exact words. trying match exact words using boundary , seems creating problem.

i tried

.*\\bab cd\\b\\s?(\\d+)\\s?\\babc\\b[/](\\d+)\\s?\\bdef\\b .*\\bab cd\\b\\s*(\\d+)\\s*\\babc\\b[/](\\d+)\\s*\\bdef\\b .*\\bab cd\\b[\\s]?(\\d+)[\\s]?\\babc\\b[/](\\d+)[\\s]?\\bdef\\b .*\\bab cd\\b[\\s]*(\\d+)[\\s]*\\babc\\b[/](\\d+)[\\s]*\\bdef\\b 

thanks.

besides expression being little redundant, must doing wrong, first expression works:

import java.util.*; import java.util.regex.*; import java.lang.*;   class main {     public static void main (string[] args) throws java.lang.exception {                  string currentline = "ab cd 12 abc/15 def";         system.out.println("current line: "+ currentline);         pattern p = pattern.compile(".*\\bab cd\\b\\s?(\\d+)\\s?\\babc\\b[/](\\d+)\\s?\\bdef\\b");         matcher m = p.matcher(currentline);         while (m.find()) {             system.out.println("matched: "+m.group(1));             system.out.println("matched: "+m.group(2));         }              } } 

and demo link prove: http://ideone.com/0txfnu

output:

current line: ab cd 12 abc/15 def matched: 12 matched: 15 

so make sure use m.group(number) access each of matched values.
