org.beangle.commons.regex

AntPattern implementation for Ant-style path patterns. Examples are provided below.

Part of this mapping code has been kindly borrowed from Apache Ant.

The mapping matches URLs using the following rules:

• ? matches one character

• • matches zero or more characters

• ** matches zero or more 'directories' in a path

Some examples:

• com/t?st.jsp - matches com/test.jsp but also com/tast.jsp or com/txst.jsp

• com/*sp - matches all .jsp files in the com directory

• org/beangle/**/*.jsp - matches all .jsp files underneath

• com/**/test.jsp - matches all test.jsp files underneath the com path the org/beangle path

• org/**/servlet/bla.jsp - matches org/beangle/servlet/bla.jsp but also org/beangle/testing/servlet/bla.jsp and org/servlet/bla.jsp
