This is a utility class used by selectors and DirectoryScanner.

The functionality more properly belongs just to selectors, but unfortunately DirectoryScanner exposed these as protected methods. Thus we have to support any subclasses of DirectoryScanner that may access these methods.

This is a Singleton.

 Methods

Retrieves the instance of the Singleton.

getInstance() 
Static

Returns dependency information on these two files.

isOutOfDate(\PhingFile $src, \PhingFile $target, int $granularity) : \whether
Static

If src has been modified later than target, it returns true. If target doesn't exist, it likewise returns true. Otherwise, target is newer than src and is not out of date, thus the method returns false. It also returns false if the src file doesn't even exist, since how could the target then be out of date.

Parameters

$src

\PhingFile

the original file

$target

\PhingFile

the file being compared against

$granularity

int

the amount in seconds of slack we will give in determining out of dateness

Returns

\whetherthe target is out of date

Tests whether or not a string matches against a pattern.

match(\pattern $pattern, \str $str, \isCaseSensitive $isCaseSensitive) : \<code>true</code>
Static

The pattern may contain two special characters:
'*' means zero or more characters
'?' means one and only one character

Parameters

$pattern

\pattern

The pattern to match against. Must not be null.

$str

\str

The string which must be matched against the pattern. Must not be null.

$isCaseSensitive

\isCaseSensitive

Whether or not matching should be performed case sensitively.

Returns

\<code>true</code>if the string matches against the pattern, or false otherwise.

Tests whether or not a given path matches a given pattern.

matchPath(\pattern $pattern, \str $str, \isCaseSensitive $isCaseSensitive) : \<code>true</code>
Static

Parameters

$pattern

\pattern

The pattern to match against. Must not be null.

$str

\str

The path to match, as a String. Must not be null.

$isCaseSensitive

\isCaseSensitive

Whether or not matching should be performed case sensitively.

Returns

\<code>true</code>if the pattern matches against the string, or false otherwise.

Tests whether or not a given path matches the start of a given pattern up to the first "**".

matchPatternStart(\pattern $pattern, \str $str, \isCaseSensitive $isCaseSensitive) : \whether
Static

<

p> This is not a general purpose test and should only be used if you can live with false positives. For example,

pattern=**\a

and

str=b

will yield

true

.

Parameters

$pattern

\pattern

The pattern to match against. Must not be null.

$str

\str

The path to match, as a String. Must not be null.

$isCaseSensitive

\isCaseSensitive

Whether or not matching should be performed case sensitively.

Returns

\whetheror not a given path matches the start of a given pattern up to the first "**".
