Class SimpleFileNamePatternFAR

java.lang.Object

net.pandoragames.far.ui.SimpleFileNamePattern

net.pandoragames.far.ui.SimpleFileNamePatternFAR

public class SimpleFileNamePatternFAR
extends SimpleFileNamePattern

Default implementation of the SimpleFileNamePattern class imposing the following rules:

The simple pattern may contain any character greater #31, except the characters '/','\',':' and ';'. In addition, the platform file separator (/ on *X, \ on Windows) and the platform file-name separator (: on *X, ; on Windows) are not permitted.

The characters '*', '?', '!', '#' and ',' have special meaning. The asterisk '*' represents any number of characters (including zero), '?' represents any single character or none, '!' represents exactly one character, '#' exactly one digit (0-9) and ',' serves as pattern seperator (a logical OR).

If a simple pattern starts with a dot '.', this is considdered equivalent to '*.'. White space at both ends of a simple pattern is of corse discarded.
