#1 '-' is not allowed in a character class

[Alexander Maryanovsky]

jregex the following exception when it encounters a string like "[-0-
9A-z]" in a pattern:

jregex.PatternSyntaxException: [-...] is
illegal

How can I then specify a character class which includes
a '-' (minus) sign? I have been so far using a library which allowed the
first character in a class to be '-'.

Thanks,

The current syntax requires the '-' to be escaped to have a
literal meaning within a char class , like [\-0-9a-z] (the
corresponding java literal is "[\\-0-9a-z]").

Consider submitting a feature request.

Actually, what I did in the meanwhile was commenting line 397 and
uncommenting line 396. This seems to work perfectly... Are there any
problems with that modification I should be aware of?
