Not easily without code-style complaints.
regex

are instance fields (private final String
).I believe the choice of using instance fields is to inherit the method
logic.cleanup.Formatter#format(String value)
, which most modifiers do, while still allowing arguments.The behavior of most code in the citation key patterns is to either return an empty string or an unmodified string on invalid usage. Hence throwing an exception during construction would require code outside of
RegexFormatter
to deal with that circumstance, which I'd like to avoid due to separation of concerns.I'd guess the alternative is to create an interface extending
logic.cleanup.Formatter
withformat(String value, String ... args)
.I have avoided taking these types of decisions as I am fairly new to Java and JabRef, but I can look into other alternatives.
