What is XEGER?
Think of it as the opposite of regular expression matchers. This library allows you to generate text that is guaranteed to match a regular expression passed in.
What is rxrdg?
Regular Expression Random Data Generator
It would be nice to have that feature, for example a urlpattern for a detail-site which contains the information i want to scrape is this:
www.sampleurl.com/bacd
www.sampleurl.com/aacd
www.sampleurl.com/aadd
now you can use http://code.google.com/p/xeger/ or http://code.google.com/p/rxrdg/ and Regex code to generate the urls out of a regexpattern like:
www.sampleurl.com/(?:';|[a-d]{4})
