          protected void setNumberOfGroups(int n)

    - #### setSource

          protected void setSource(java.text.CharacterIterator ci)

    - #### setSource

          protected void setSource(java.lang.String str)

    - #### setSource

          protected void setSource(char[] chars)

    - #### setBeginning

      Return a start position in the target text matched to specified regular expression group.
      Parameters:
        `index` - Less than `getNumberOfGroups()`.

    - #### getEnd

          public int getEnd(int index)

      Return an end position in the target text matched to specified regular expression group.
      Parameters:
        `index` - Less than `getNumberOfGroups()`.

    - #### getCapturedText

          public java.lang.String getCapturedText(int index)

      Return an substring of the target text matched to specified regular expression group.
      Parameters:
        `index` - Less than `getNumberOfGroups()`.
