Tcl_StringMatch(3)	    Tcl Library Procedures	    Tcl_StringMatch(3)

______________________________________________________________________________

NAME
       Tcl_StringMatch,	 Tcl_StringCaseMatch - test whether a string matches a
       pattern

SYNOPSIS
       #include <tcl.h>

       int
       Tcl_StringMatch(string, pattern)

       int
       Tcl_StringCaseMatch(string, pattern, nocase)

ARGUMENTS
       char	    *string	       (in)	 String to test.

       char	    *pattern	       (in)	 Pattern  to   match   against
						 string.   May contain special
						 characters   from   the   set
						 *?\[].

       int	    nocase	       (in)	 Specifies  whether  the match
						 should be done case-sensitive
						 (0) or case-insensitive (1).

DESCRIPTION
       This utility procedure determines whether a string matches a given pat‐
       tern.   If  it  does,  then  Tcl_StringMatch  returns   1.    Otherwise
       Tcl_StringMatch returns 0.  The algorithm used for matching is the same
       algorithm used in the ``string match'' Tcl command and  is  similar  to
       the  algorithm used by the C-shell for file name matching;  see the Tcl
       manual entry for details.					       │

       In Tcl_StringCaseMatch, the algorithm is the same,  but	you  have  the │
       option  to  make the matching case-insensitive.	If you choose this (by │
       passing nocase as 1), then  the	string	and  pattern  are  essentially │
       matched in the lower case.
