Even in the above there's much redundancies and
it's hard to maintain.
I think we should exploit the power of Perl:
for ($pattern) {
$_ = "\($_\)"; # Capturing
$_ = "(?i)$_" if $IgnoreCase;
$_ = '^' . $_ . '$' if $WholeMatchOnly;
}
print "matches" if $text =~ /$pattern/;
Now it's exactly expressed what the algorithm has to do:
Take a pattern {
Capture the content
IgnoreCase if neccessary
WholeMatchOnly if necessary
}
