glob_match — match a text string against a glob-style pattern
int glob_match ( | const char * text, |
const char * pattern); |
Either/both of text and pattern can be empty strings.
Match text against a glob-style pattern, with wildcards and simple sets:
? matches any single character. * matches any run of characters. [xyz] matches a single character from the set: x, y, or z. [a-d] matches a single character from the range: a, b, c, or d. [a-d0-9] matches a single character from either range.
The special characters ?, [, -, or *, can be matched using a set, eg. [*] Behaviour with malformed patterns is undefined, though generally reasonable.
