Constructor Detail

GlobPattern

public GlobPattern(String pattern,
                   boolean ishandle)

Class constructor that create a GlobPattern with the given pattern. If the ishandle flag is true this will construct a hierarchy matcher.

Parameters:

pattern - pattern string

ishandle - if true and the pattern contains no wildcards, the matches(String) returns true, if the compared string is equal or starts with the pattern+"/" (i.e. is a child page)

GlobPattern

public GlobPattern(String pattern)

Class constructor that create a GlobPattern with the given pattern.

Parameters:

pattern - pattern string

Method Detail

matches

public final boolean matches(String s)

Returns a flag indicating whether a string matches this pattern.

Parameters:

s - string to be checked

Returns:

true if s matches this pattern, else false.

matches

public static final boolean matches(String pattern,
                                    String s)

Returns a flag indicating whether a string matches a pattern.

Parameters:

pattern - pattern used for comparison

s - string to be checked

Returns:

true if s matches pattern, else false.

matches

public static final boolean matches(String pattern,
                                    String s,
                                    boolean ishandle)

Returns a flag indicating whether a string matches a pattern. if the ishandle is true and the pattern contains no wildcards, the method returns true, if the pattern is a hierarchical father of the string.

Parameters:

pattern - pattern used for comparison

s - string to be checked

ishandle - flag, indicating, if a handle comparison has to be performed

Returns:

true if s matches pattern, else false.

shellMatches

public boolean shellMatches(String s)

Returns a flag indicating whether a string matches a pattern. unlike the matches methods, this matching is done shell-like.

Parameters:

s - string to be checked

Returns:

true if the string matches shell-like; false otherwise.

shellMatches

public boolean shellMatches(String s,
                            char c)

Returns a flag indicating whether a string matches a pattern. unlike the matches methods, this matching is done shell-like.

Parameters:

s - string to be checked

c - character to be used as path delimiter

Returns:

true if the string matches shell-like; false otherwise.

containsWildcards

public static final boolean containsWildcards(String s)

Returns true if the string contains wildcards.

Parameters:

s - string to be checked

Returns:

true if s contains wildcards, else false.

indexOfWildcard

public static final int indexOfWildcard(String s)

Returns the index of the first wildcard character in the string or -1 if the string does not contain a wild card character.

Parameters:

s - string to be checked

toString

public String toString()

Returns the pattern of this GlobPattern

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

the pattern.

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Returns true if this GlobPattern is equal to object obj.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

obj - the object to compare for equality.

Returns:

true if this GlobPattern is equal to object obj.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns the hashCode for this GlobPattern.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

the hashCode for this GlobPattern.
