Match a string against a pattern. | | public static boolean | match(String pattern, String string, String[] substr)

meta-characters in pattern. |

Parameters:
pattern - Glob pattern.
Parameters:
string - String to match against pattern. true if the string matched the pattern,false otherwise. |
| match | | public static boolean match(String pattern, String string, String[] substr)(Code) | | Match a string against a pattern, and return sub-matches.
The caller can provide an array of strings that will be filled in with
the substrings of string that matched the glob
meta-characters in pattern. The array of strings may be
partially modified even if the string did not match the glob pattern.
The array may contain more elements than glob meta-characters, in
which case those extra elements will not be modified; the array may
also contain fewer elements or even be null, to ignore
some or all of the glob meta-characters. In other words, the user can
pass pretty much anything and this method defines errors out of
existence.
Parameters:
pattern - Glob pattern.
Parameters:
string - String to match against pattern.
Parameters:
substr - Array of strings provided by the caller, to be filled inwith the substrings that matched the glob meta-characters.May be null. true if the string matched the pattern,false otherwise. |
