$str.match Matches a fixed string against a wildcard expression |
Usage |
<bool> $str.match(<expression:string>,<string:string>[,<flags:string>[,<case:bool>]]) |
Description |
| Returns 1 if the fixed <string> matches the <expression>, and 0 otherwise. If <flags> contains the flag r then <expression> is treated as a full regular expression otherwise it is treated as a simple wildcard expression containing the classic wildcards * and ?. If <flags> contains the flag e then only an exact match is considered (e.g. the full <string> is exactly matched by <expression>), otherwise partial matches are allowed too (e.g. <expression> is found inside <string>). If the third parameter is set to true, then the match is case sensitive. |
Examples |
%test = "Hello! My nickname is Pragma" if($str.match(Pragma*,%test))echo "Matches Pragma*" if($str.match(*Pragma,%test))echo "Matches *Pragma" if($str.match(H*y*i?k*a,%test))echo "Matches H*y*i?k*a" if($str.match(H*y*i?K*a,%test))echo "Matches H*y*i?K*a" |
