Class BasicListMatcher

  proguard.util.BasicListMatcher

All Implemented Interfaces:

StringMatcher

Direct Known Subclasses:

ClassNameListMatcher, FileNameListMatcher

public class BasicListMatcher

extends Object

implements StringMatcher

This StringMatcher tests whether strings match an entry in a given list of regular expressions. The list is given as a comma-separated string or as a List of strings. An exclamation mark preceding a list entry acts as a negator: if the expression matches, a negative match is returned, without considering any subsequent entries. If none of the entries match, a positive match is returned depending on whether the last regular expression had a negator or not.

The individual regular expression matching is delegated to a StringMatcher that is created by the #createBasicMatcher(String} method. If it is not overridden, this method returns a BasicMatcher.
