fnmatch

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5)

fnmatch — Match filename against a pattern

설명

bool fnmatch ( string $pattern , string $string [, int $flags ] )

fnmatch() checks if the passed string would match the given shell wildcard pattern .

매개변수

pattern

The shell wildcard pattern.

string

The tested string. This function is especially useful for filenames, but may also be used on regular strings.

The average user may be used to shell patterns or at least in their simplest form to '?' and '*' wildcards so using fnmatch() instead of ereg() or preg_match() for frontend search expression input may be way more convenient for non-programming users.

flags

See the Unix manpage on fnmatch(3) for flag names (as long as they are not documented here).

반환값

Returns TRUE if there is a match, FALSE otherwise.

예제

Example#1 Checking a color name against a shell wildcard pattern

<?php
if (fnmatch("*gr[ae]y"$color)) {
  echo 
"some form of gray ...";
}
?>

주의

Warning

For now this function is not available on Windows or other non-POSIX compliant systems.
