Would be great to have convenient way of storing patterns with single backslash. Some workarounds: store it in the file and use NIO to read. Cons: JEE does not allow IO access. Store somehow in JNDI. Maybe new to java 5 Pattern.LITERAL flag can help? I want to work with normal pattern string, like \d, not \\d.
