java - Is there a regular expression way to replace a set of characters with another set (like shell tr command)?

The shell tr command support replace one set of characters with another set. For example, echo hello | tr [a-z] [A-Z] will tranlate hello to HELLO.

In java, however, I must replace each character individually like the following

"10 Dogs Are Racing"
    .replaceAll ("0", "0")
    .replaceAll ("1", "1")
    .replaceAll ("2", "2")
    // ...
    .replaceAll ("9", "9")
    .replaceAll ("A", "A")
    // ...
;

The apache-commons-lang library provides a convenient replaceChars method to do such replacement.

// half-width to full-width
System.out.println
(
    org.apache.commons.lang.StringUtils.replaceChars
    (
        "10 Dogs Are Racing",
        "0123456789ABCDEFEGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz",
        "0123456789ABCDEFEGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
    )
);
// Result:
// 10 Dogs Are Racing

But as you can see, sometime the searchChars/replaceChars are too long (also too boring, please find a duplicated character in it if you want), and can be expressed by a simple regular expression [0-9A-Za-z]/[0-9A-Za-z]. Is there a regular expression way to achieve that ?

No.

(some extra characters so that SO will allow me to post my otherwise succinct answer)
