Class NameFilter

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.jackrabbit.mk.util.NameFilter

public class NameFilter
extends Object

Simple name filter utility class.

• a filter consists of one or more globs
• a glob prefixed by - (dash) is treated as an exclusion pattern; all others are considered inclusion patterns
• a leading - (dash) must be escaped by prepending \ (backslash) if it should be interpreted as a literal
• * (asterisk) serves as a wildcard, i.e. it matches any substring in the target name
• * (asterisk) occurrences within the glob to be interpreted as literals must be escaped by prepending \ (backslash)
• a filter matches a target name if any of the inclusion patterns match but none of the exclusion patterns

Examples:

["foo*", "-foo99"] matches "foo" and "foo bar" but not "foo99".

["foo\*"] matches "foo*" but not "foo99".

["\-blah"] matches "-blah".
