NAME

fnmatch − match filename or pathname

SYNOPSIS

#include <fnmatch.h>

int fnmatch(const char *pattern, const char *strings, int flags);

DESCRIPTION

The fnmatch() checks the strings argument and checks if it matches pattern argument, which is a shell wildcard pattern.

The flags argument modifies the behaviour; it is the bitwise OR of zero or more of the following flags:
FNM_NOESCAPE

If this flag is set, treat backslash as an ordinary character, instead of an escape character.

FNM_PATHNAME

If this flag is set, match a slash in string only with a slash in pattern and not, for example, with a [] − sequence containing a slash.

FNM_PERIOD

If flag this is set, a leading period in string has to be matched exactly by a period in pattern. A period is considered to be leading if it is the first character in string, or if both FNM_PATHNAME is set and the period immediately follows a slash.

RETURN VALUE

Zero if string matches pattern, FNM_NOMATCH if there is no match or another value if there is an error.
