The constructor for a RegexFTPFileEntryParserImpl object. The expression is compiled with flags = 0.
Params:
  • regex – The regular expression with which this object is initialized.
Throws:
  • IllegalArgumentException – Thrown if the regular expression is unparseable. Should not be seen in normal conditions. It it is seen, this is a sign that a subclass has been created with a bad regular expression. Since the parser must be created before use, this means that any bad parser subclasses created from this will bomb very quickly, leading to easy detection.
