WildcardFileFilter fails for wild card pattern with a '*' in it ---------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IO-281 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-281 Project: Commons IO Issue Type: Bug Components: Filters Affects Versions: 1.3.2 Environment: Windows XP Reporter: Dean Schulze Priority: Blocker The code below reports no files found when there is a file matching the wild card pattern. If I enter this command in a DOS windows in the same directory it finds the file so the wild card pattern is correct as far as DOS is concerned: C:\dean\clipper\src\metadata.mail>dir 320620110821433-*.RWD Directory of C:\dean\clipper\src\metadata.mail 08/22/2011 12:36 PM 9,728 320620110821433-1.RWD 1 File(s) 9,728 bytes 0 Dir(s) 50,033,049,600 bytes free This code should work according to the docs but it reports no file found: void testFileNameFilter() throws IOException { String fileNamePrefix = "320620110821433"; File f = new File(fileNamePrefix + ".rwd"); String filterString = fileNamePrefix + "-*.RWD"; FileFilter filter = new WildcardFileFilter(filterString, IOCase.SYSTEM); File dir = f.getCanonicalFile(); File[] existingFiles = dir.listFiles(filter); if (existingFiles != null) for (File f2 : existingFiles) System.out.println(f2.getName()); else System.out.println("No files found for" + filterString); } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
