Shell Compatible Wildcards: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 10:27, 30 April 2015

Commonly known as just shwild, this is a multi-platform C library that helps you implement command line wildcards. Shwild comes with C++ bindings included in the package. There is also a sub project called shwild.fnmatch which is a platform independent recreation of the UNIX "fnmatch" package, but that is a filename pattern matching function/library.

Version

Current version of shwild is 0.9.20 (2011-12-22) and shwild.fnmatch version is 0.8.2 (2007-02-08)

There is no OS/2 specific version of this, you usually just add OS/2 as a Unix type target and compile with GCC, but we have also used Open Watcom

Prerequisites

The use of the C++ bindings requires the use of portions of the STLSoft class library. shwild.fnmatch requires both STLSoft and the cstring library.
