Hi,

I think it's for the moment impossible to do...
I need to match special chars in the an attribute of my artefacts, and after to replace the Special char to an other char.

For example, if I have a class with the name "école", I want to replace é to e ( and to do the same thing for the "ù" "à" "ç" etc )

Is it possible? ( with Something like Regular expressions?)

Thank you in advance

Benoit

[edit] I dont want to use the methode replace(matchstr,replacementstr)

Hi Benoit,

If you don't mind using hard-coded mappings (and pray you don't forget
one of the potential mappings), you can use something like

string.replaceAll('éêèë', 'e').replaceAll('ÉÊÈË',
'E').replaceAll('áàãåä', 'a').replace ....

This doesn't really make for the most robust code.

A more reliable solution would be to call a Java service which would do
this :

public String stripDiacritics(String s) {
final String decomposed = Normalizer.normalize(s, Normalizer.Form.NFD);
return decomposed.replaceAll("\\p{M}", "");
}

Take note that the "Normalizer" API has changed in Java 1.6 ; if you're
using Java 1.5 or lower your code would be :

public String stripDiacritics(String s) {
String decomposed = Normalizer.normalize(s, Normalizer.DECOMP, 0);
return decomposed.replaceAll("\\p{M}", "");
}
