abstract member MatchName : string * bool -> boolPublic Function MatchName (NameToMatch As String, FullOnly As Boolean) As BooleanParameters
- NameToMatch
- String
Required. The name to match.
- FullOnly
- Boolean
Required. true if you want MatchName(String, Boolean) to match the full name of the string. false if you want to allow a match on the short name of the string.
Setting MatchName(String, Boolean) to true is useful for projects, folders, and files, and requires an absolute path to match. A folder's absolute path is the concatenation of the folder names above it with its own name. A top-level folder's full name is the same as its name. If a folder named Source Files contain a subfolder named MyProject, the MyProject folder full name would be Source Files\MyProject.
Returns
true if the name is matched; otherwise, false.

Remarks
MatchName operates on a collection item. If you are iterating over the members of a collection, you can use the MatchName method to determine whether the current item is the one in which you are interested.
You can also use MatchName to match debug configurations, regardless of the platform (which is part of the full name Debug\Win32).
You cannot use MatchName for indexing into a collection. Indexing implies using the [] operator or its equivalent .Item() method, and MatchName does not affect either process.
