I have a text file which has some data like this:
- data: {text: '=', name: '10', id: 316, row: 8, column: 1, width: 19, height: 1}
I want to replace the '=' with = and '10' with 10.
I have tried using
Pattern p= Pattern.compile("\\w+:\\s\\'(.*)\\'");
matcher.group(1);
This gives me =', name: '10
But I need to get =.
How do I find all the matches?

You can probably do:
data = data.replaceAll("'([^']*)'", "$1");
to string all strings from single quote.
OR make it more restrictive by replacing only 10 OR = only:
data = data.replaceAll("'(10|=)'", "$1");
Is RegEx really required here? If all you're trying to do is just replace those 2, perhaps you should try something like:
string = string.replace("'", "");
I am assuming that you want to replace all of the values that are contained with in a '.
Or if you just want to replace only those 2 occurrences, feel free to try something like:
string = string.replace("'='", "=").replace("'10'", "10");
string = string.replace("'='", "=").replace("'10'", "10");) is definitely what you are looking for.
'. It's what has been done for a while and is probably preferred due to the simplicity of the implementation.Actually for thing you need it is very very simple :
String change = "text: '=', name: '10', id: 316, row: 8, column: 1, width: 19, height: 1";
String newString = change.replaceAll("'", "");
