Using regex to retrieve all text inside parentheses

[adhoc334]

Hi. My program will be parsing syntax coming from the user, and certain bits of data will be designated inside parentheses (like a URL or date, for instance).

Since multiple parentheses will probably show up in the syntax, I don't want to settle for finding the index of an opening parenthesis and substringing the rest from there.

Is there any way to accomplish this task in regex?

I want to store each string found between each set of parentheses in a List and parse each string individually.

For example:
String syntax = "foo foo (12-12-10)(http://www.foo.bar)";

List fromParentheses = returnEverythingInsideEachParentheses(syntax);

No, that's why it's called 'crossposting'. Suppose I wanted to reply and anwser your question while someone already did the same in that other forum; I'd be wasting my time and would you care?

kind regards,
