Constructor Detail

WildcardFilter

public WildcardFilter(java.lang.String wildcard)

Specified by:

accept in interface java.io.FileFilter

true if file matches wildcard or if directory, otherwise false

accept

public boolean accept(java.lang.String name)

Matching method on filename only. On Windows case is ignored.
