public class WildcardFileFilter extends Object implements FileFilter, Serializable
This filter selects files and directories based on one or more wildcards. Testing is case-sensitive by default, but this can be configured.
The wildcard matcher uses the characters '?' and '*' to represent a single or multiple wildcard characters. This is the same as often found on Dos/Unix command lines.
For example, to retrieve and print all java files that have the expression test in the name in the current directory:
FileSystemManager fsManager = VFS.getManager();
FileObject dir = fsManager.toFileObject(new File("."));
FileObject[] files;
files = dir.findFiles(new FileFilterSelector(new WildcardFileFilter("*test*.java")));
for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
System.out.println(files[i]);
}
