I have a method like this :
for(String abc:abcs){
xyz = abc.replaceAll(abc+"\\(", "_"+abc+"\\(");
}
How to avoid replacing few replacements which have specific prefixes for them in java
I tried this :
String data = "Today, abc.xyz is object oriented language";
String regex = "(?<!abc.)xyz";
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex);
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(data);
System.out.println(matcher.find());
Does this work for you?
package test;
import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String prefix = "abc";
String replaceWith = " text";
String input = "This xyz is an example xyz to show how you can replace certains values of the xyz.\n"
+ "The xyz can conain any arbitrary xyz, for example abc.xyz.";
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("[^" + prefix + "].xyz");
Matcher m = pattern.matcher(input);
while (m.find()) {
input = input.replace(m.group().substring(1), replaceWith);
}
System.out.println(input);
}
}
