Hi all,
In Java, I'd like to match:
\[.*\]
where \[ and \] are literal square brackets. In other words, I'd like to
match things like:
[3] in "foo[3]"
[1][10] in "bar[1][10]"
However, the compiler complains when I escape the square brackets with a
backslash. For some reason \[ doesn't match a literal [.
What is the regex that matches this?
Thanks,
Pete
