One way to validate a Gmail address in Java is to use regular expressions. Here is a sample code that shows how to validate a Gmail address using a regular expression:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 |
import java.util.regex.Matcher; import java.util.regex.Pattern; public class ValidateGmailAddress { public static void main(String[] args) { String email = "[email protected]"; // Regular expression for a Gmail address String regex = "^[a-zA-Z0-9_+&*-]+(?:\.[a-zA-Z0-9_+&*-]+)*@(?:gmail)\.com$"; // Compile the regex Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex); // Match the email address with the regex Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(email); // Check if the email address is valid if (matcher.matches()) { System.out.println("Valid Gmail address"); } else { System.out.println("Invalid Gmail address"); } } } |
In this code, we have defined a regular expression that matches a Gmail address. The regex checks for the pattern of letters, digits, and special characters before the @
symbol, followed by the domain gmail.com
.
We then compile the regex using the Pattern
class and create a Matcher
object to match the email address with the regex pattern. If the email address matches the pattern, it is considered a valid Gmail address.
You can customize the regex pattern based on your specific needs and requirements for validating a Gmail address.
