If i want to use a regex something like ^[a-z0-9]{0,8}±[a-z0-9]{0,4}±[a-z0-9]{0,4}±[a-z0-9]{0,4}±[a-z0-9]{0,12}+$. This wont support

No, because regex is meant for matching -- personally, I would not use regex for this kind of problem (hence my original, abnormally terse response). All my random strings are generated by using:

import org.apache.commons.lang.RandomStringUtils

Perhaps you could search duckduckgo for that and then build your own algorithm in groovy.
