Unicode word boundaries in Regex

807589Nov 14 2008 — edited Nov 15 2008
Dear All,

I am using the following simple regex: "\\w+" which matches one more word characters. My problem is that it is not matching unicode characters which are part of my language. Is there any way to force java regex engine to include unicode characters in w ?

If this is not possible is there any third party library tha can be used?

Many thanks,
Chris Farrugia
