Class StringPattern

java.lang.Object

org.codehaus.janino.util.StringPattern

public class StringPattern
extends Object

Implementation of a UNIX shell-like string pattern algorithm.

Additionally, the concept of the "combined pattern" is supported (see matches(StringPattern[], String).

PATTERNS_ALL

public static final StringPattern[] PATTERNS_ALL

PATTERNS_NONE

public static final StringPattern[] PATTERNS_NONE

A StringPattern that matches no subject whatsoever.

Constructor Detail

StringPattern

public StringPattern(int mode,
                     String pattern)

Parameters:

mode - INCLUDE or EXCLUDE

StringPattern

public StringPattern(@Nullable
                     String pattern)

Method Detail

getMode

public int getMode()

Returns:

Whether this StringPattern represents inclusion (INCLUDE) or exclusion exclusion (EXCLUDE) of subjects

matches

public boolean matches(String text)

Match the given text against the pattern represented by the current instance, as follows:

• A * in the pattern matches any sequence of zero or more characters in the text
• A ? in the pattern matches exactly one character in the text
• Any other character in the pattern must appear exactly as it is in the text

Notice: The mode flag of the current instance does not take any effect here.

parseCombinedPattern

public static StringPattern[] parseCombinedPattern(String combinedPattern)

Parse a "combined pattern" into an array of StringPatterns. A combined pattern string is structured as follows:

   combined-pattern :=
     [ '+' | '-' ] pattern
     { ( '+' | '-' ) pattern }
 

If a pattern is preceeded with a '-', then the StringPattern is created with mode EXCLUDE, otherwise with mode INCLUDE.

matches

public static boolean matches(StringPattern[] patterns,
                              String text)

Match a given text against an array of StringPatterns (which was typically created by parseCombinedPattern(String).

The last matching pattern takes effect; if its mode is INCLUDE, then true is returned, if its mode is EXCLUDE, then false is returned.

If patterns is PATTERNS_NONE, or empty, or none of its patterns matches, then false is returned.

If patterns is PATTERNS_ALL, then true is returned.

For backwards compatibility, null patterns are treated like PATTERNS_NONE.

toString
