Interface Summary
Interface	Description
AutomatonProvider	Automaton provider for `RegExp.` `RegExp.toAutomaton(AutomatonProvider,int)`

Class Summary
Class	Description
Automata	Construction of basic automata.
Automaton	Represents an automaton and all its states and transitions.
Automaton.Builder	Records new states and transitions and then `Automaton.Builder.finish()` creates the `Automaton`.
ByteRunAutomaton	Automaton representation for matching UTF-8 byte[].
CharacterRunAutomaton	Automaton representation for matching char[].
CompiledAutomaton	Immutable class holding compiled details for a given Automaton.
DaciukMihovAutomatonBuilder	Builds a minimal, deterministic `Automaton` that accepts a set of strings.
FiniteStringsIterator	Iterates all accepted strings.
LevenshteinAutomata	Class to construct DFAs that match a word within some edit distance.
LimitedFiniteStringsIterator	`FiniteStringsIterator` which limits the number of iterated accepted strings.
MinimizationOperations	Operations for minimizing automata.
Operations	Automata operations.
RegExp	Regular Expression extension to `Automaton`.
RunAutomaton	Finite-state automaton with fast run operation.
StatePair	Pair of states.
Transition	Holds one transition from an `Automaton`.
UTF32ToUTF8	Converts UTF-32 automata to the equivalent UTF-8 representation.

Enum Summary
Enum	Description
CompiledAutomaton.AUTOMATON_TYPE	Automata are compiled into different internal forms for the most efficient execution depending upon the language they accept.

Exception Summary
Exception Description

TooComplexToDeterminizeException
This exception is thrown when determinizing an automaton would result in one has too many states.

Exception	Description
TooComplexToDeterminizeException	This exception is thrown when determinizing an automaton would result in one has too many states.

Package org.apache.lucene.util.automaton Description

Finite-state automaton for regular expressions.

This package contains a full DFA/NFA implementation with Unicode alphabet and support for all standard (and a number of non-standard) regular expression operations.

The most commonly used functionality is located in the classes Automaton and RegExp.
