Public Function IsMatch (stringToMatch As String) As Boolean

Parameters

stringToMatch: String

The string to match. If the string represents a relative path, it will get normalized against the glob's root. Cannot be null.

Returns

Boolean

false if stringToMatch contains invalid path or file characters; true otherwise.

Implements

IsMatch(String)

Remarks

Matching is path aware:

Slashes are normalized.
Arguments representing relative paths are normalized against the glob's root.

For example, the glob **/*.cs does not match ../a.cs, since ../a.cs points outside of the glob root.
