Class Pattern

java.lang.Object
  com.stevenrbrandt.ubiq2.v4.pattwo.Pattern

public class Pattern
extends java.lang.Object

Very similar in function to java.util.regex.Pattern. Noteable differences:

1. Designed to use low memory. Should never result in a stack overflow. This means, however, that certain complex patterns could take a very long time to match.
2. The set of character entities is more limited. Than what Sun provides. You can, however, add your own using the addEntity method.
3. (?<=X) and (?<!X) are not supported.
4. requireEnd() is missing and will not be supplied. I think it's purpose is to support matching on a stream. I offer a different way to do this (see the Loader).
5. Various methods missing -- these may trickle in.
