Bob,

The GNU site (http://www.gnu.org/software/java/java-software.html)
lists a free Java regex library called "gnu.regexp", which is
available at http://www.cacas.org/~wes/java/.

If you need a commercial product, then check out the "pat" package at http://javaregex.com/.
It enables a Java application to compile and use perl5 regular expressions.
It's only $10, and there is no per copy royalty fee if you are
just distributing with your application or applet.  

You can download an eval copy for free.
The documentation is good. I didn't find any bugs when I was evaluating it.

A few months ago, I too was searching for a Java regex library for my XML app.
The "pat" package was not fast enough for my needs. I ended up changing my
design, so that I would not need a regex library.

Can anyone recommend a Java regular expression library for developing
Java apps to process XML? OROINC's seems popular on the web, but I'm
having trouble running the examples and was wondering if I'm missing
anything good out there. 

thanks,
