How can we have cucumber recognise a ":" symbol after a scenario outline parameter? - cucumber-jvm

Question

When using CucumberJVM to write feature files, when passing in the variables from the scenario outline examples table, I am unable to get the steps to recognise a variable followed by ":".
Step definition:
#Given("^the following (.*) (.*): (.*)$")
Successfully detects this:
Given the following standard user: <username>
Does not detect this:
Given the following standard <account-type>: <username>
I want the best of both worlds, but when passing a variable from this example table for the step is not recognised by cucumber.
Examples:
| username | account-type |
| Jason | user |
| Martin | manager |
How can I have the ":" symbol, detected and working within the feature file for both of these scenarios? is an ENUM and cucumber seems like its failing to convert it in this situation

Answer 1

As suggested in the comments, modify the pattern in the stepdefinition class.
#Given("^the following standard (.*?): (.*?)$")
public void the_following_standard_user( AccountType usertype,String user) {
System.out.println(user);
System.out.println(usertype);
}
AccountType is the enumeration.
public enum AccountType {
USER("user"), MANAGER("manager");
private final String type;
private AccountType(String type) {
this.type = type;
}
}
