Constructor Detail

WildCardFilenameFilter

public WildCardFilenameFilter(java.lang.String expression)

The '*' symbol is used as the wildcard. The wildcard can only appear at the end of the absolute path. For example '/usr/home/java/Test*.java' is valid whereas '/usr/home/java*_dir/Test.class' is not valid. Currently, only one wildcard per expression is supported.
