tokenize a string with regex having special characters

I am trying to find the tokens in a string, which has words, numbers, and special chars. I tried the following code:

String Pattern = "(\\s)+";
String Example = "This `99 is my small \"yy\"  xx`example ";
String[] splitString = (Example.split(Pattern));
System.out.println(splitString.length);
for (String string : splitString) {
    System.out.println(string);
}

And got the following output:

This:`99:is:my:small:"yy":xx`example:

But what I actually want is this, ie I want the special chars also as separate tokens:

This:`:99:is:my:small:":yy:":xx:`:example:

I tried to put the special chars inside the pattern, but now the special characters vanished completely:

String Pattern = "(\"|`|\\.|\\s+)";
This::99:is:my:small::yy::xx:example:

With what pattern will I get my desired output? Or should I try a different approach than using regex?

您可以使用匹配方法来匹配字母条纹(带或不带组合标记),除字和空格之外的数字或单个字符。我认为_应该被视为这种方法中的特殊字符。

使用

"(?U)(?>[^\\W\\d]\\p{M}*+)+|\\d+|[^\\w\\s]"

请参阅regex demo

<强>详情:

  • (?U) - Pattern.UNICODE_CHARACTER_CLASS修饰符的内嵌版本
  • (?>[^\\W\\d]\\p{M}*+)+ - 在
  • 之后有一个或多个字母或_有/无组合标记
  • | - 或
  • \\d+ - 任意1位数字
  • | - 或
  • [^\\w\\s] - 一个字符,可以是任何字符,但只是一个单词和空格。

请参阅Java demo

String str = "This `99 is my small \"yy\"  xx`example_and_more ";
Pattern ptrn = Pattern.compile("(?U)(?>[^\\W\\d]\\p{M}*+)+|\\d+|[^\\w\\s]");
List<String> res = new ArrayList<>();
Matcher matcher = ptrn.matcher(str);
while (matcher.find()) {
    res.add(matcher.group());
}
System.out.println(res);
// => [This, `, 99, is, my, small, ", yy, ", xx, `, example_and_more]
