NAME

String::Wildcard::DOS - DOS wildcard string routines

VERSION

This document describes version 0.01 of String::Wildcard::DOS (from Perl distribution String-Wildcard-DOS), released on 2014-07-26.

SYNOPSIS

    use String::Wildcard::DOS qw(contains_wildcard);

    say 1 if contains_wildcard(""));      # -> 0
    say 1 if contains_wildcard("ab*"));   # -> 1
    say 1 if contains_wildcard("ab\\*")); # -> 1

DESCRIPTION

FUNCTIONS

contains_wildcard($str) => bool

Return true if $str contains DOS wildcard pattern. Wildcard patterns include * (meaning zero or more characters), ? (exactly one character). There is no backslash escaping mechanism.

TODO

See String::Wildcard::Bash's TODO for the types of other functions which I plan to add to this module.

SEE ALSO

Regexp::Wildcards to convert a string with wildcard pattern to equivalent regexp pattern. Can handle Unix wildcards as well as SQL and DOS/Win32. As of this writing (v1.05), it does not handle character class ([...]) and interprets brace expansion differently than bash.

Other String::Wildcard::* modules.
