[Bug classpath/36000] New: java.util.regex.Matcher should support region-based matching

[gnu_andrew at member dot fsf dot org]

Java 1.5 added support for matching on a region of the input with a regular
expression:

# method java.util.regex.Matcher.hasAnchoringBounds(): missing in classpath
# method java.util.regex.Matcher.hasTransparentBounds(): missing in classpath
# method java.util.regex.Matcher.quoteReplacement(java.lang.String): missing in
classpath
# method java.util.regex.Matcher.region(int, int): missing in classpath
# method java.util.regex.Matcher.regionEnd(): missing in classpath
# method java.util.regex.Matcher.regionStart(): missing in classpath
# method java.util.regex.Matcher.requireEnd(): missing in classpath
# method java.util.regex.Matcher.toMatchResult(): missing in classpath
# method java.util.regex.Matcher.useAnchoringBounds(boolean): missing in
classpath
# method java.util.regex.Matcher.usePattern(java.util.regex.Pattern): missing
in classpath
# method java.util.regex.Matcher.useTransparentBounds(boolean): missing in
classpath

As can be seen from
http://builder.classpath.org/japi/openjdk6-classpath.html#err_missing_java_util_regex
(quoted above), we don't yet provide these methods.
