Edit Question
Title
Body
This question has been bugging me for a long time now but essentially I'm looking for the most efficient way to grab all Strings between two Strings. The way I have been doing it for many months now is through using a bunch of temporary indices, strings, substrings, and it's really messy. (Why does Java not have a native method such as String substring(String start, String end) ? Say I have a String: abcabc [pattern1]foo[pattern2] abcdefg [pattern1]bar[pattern2] morestuff The end goal would be to output foo and bar . (And later to be added into a JList) I've been trying to incorporate regex in .split() but haven't been successful. I've tried syntax using * 's and . 's but I don't think it's quite what my intention is especially since .split() only takes one argument to split against. Otherwise I think another way is to use the Pattern and Matcher classes? But I'm really fuzzy on the appropriate procedure.
