i have a file from which i have to read data.The file has lines in between such as
== or
%
I tried defining 2 pattern matchers

			

			

			Pattern p = Pattern.compile("[==\n]+");
			

			Matcher matcher = p.matcher("");
			

			

			

			Pattern p1 = Pattern.compile("[%\n]+");
			

			Matcher m = p1.matcher("");
			

		

			

			

			while((aLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
			

			matcher.reset(aLine);
			

			m.reset(aLine);
			

			if (matcher.find()) {
			

			//  line matches the pattern
			

			if (aLine != null){
			

			if (term.size() > 0){
			

			map.put(record,term);
			

			}
			

			record = aLine;
			

			term = new Vector();
			

			}
			

			}
			

			if (m.find()) {
			

			//  line matches the pattern
			

			if (aLine != null) {
			

			term.addElement(aLine);
			

		

somwhow when i run the code i print out just
==
or %
instead of the values after == and %
i tried using
in my pattern matcher instead of \n but to the same probem.
My file as i said earlier is in the following format

			

			

			==
			

			xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
			

			%
			

			xxxxxxxxxx
			

			==
			

		

i want to obviously read the XXX.Defining both the patterns in one matcher didnt help
