Regex for splitting a german address into its parts

Question

Good evening,

I\'m trying to splitting the parts of a german address string into its parts via Java. Does anyone know a regex or a library to do this? To split it like t

Answer 1

public static void main(String[] args) {
    String data = "Name der Strase 25a 88489 Teststadt";
    String regexp = "([ a-zA-z]+) ([\\w]+) (\\d+) ([a-zA-Z]+)";

    Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regexp);
    Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(data);
    boolean matchFound = matcher.find();

    if (matchFound) {
        // Get all groups for this match
        for (int i=0; i<=matcher.groupCount(); i++) {
            String groupStr = matcher.group(i);
            System.out.println(groupStr);
        }
    }System.out.println("nothing found");
                }

I guess it doesn't work with german umlauts but you can fix this on your own. Anyway it's a good startup.

I recommend to visit this it's a great site about regular expressions. Good luck!
