A regular expression criteria that matches attribute string values. For non
java.lang.String attributes
, the
toString()
form is used in the comparison.
Expressions are
always case insensitive The following special characters are supported:
- '?' - match any one single character
- '*' - match any multiple character(s) (including zero)
The supported wildcard characters can be escaped with a backslash '\', and a literal backslash can be included with '\\'
WARN: Expressions starting with a leading wildcard character are potentially very expensive (ie. full scan) for indexed caches
