const char* apr_strmatch	(	const apr_strmatch_pattern *	pattern,
		const char *	s,
		apr_size_t	slen
	)

Search for a precompiled pattern within a string

Parameters:

pattern	The pattern
s	The string in which to search for the pattern
slen	The length of s (excluding null terminator)

Returns:

A pointer to the first instance of the pattern in s, or NULL if not found

const apr_strmatch_pattern* apr_strmatch_precompile	(	apr_pool_t *	p,
		const char *	s,
		int	case_sensitive
	)

Precompile a pattern for matching using the Boyer-Moore-Horspool algorithm

Parameters:

p	The pool from which to allocate the pattern
s	The pattern string
case_sensitive	Whether the matching should be case-sensitive

Returns:

a pointer to the compiled pattern, or NULL if compilation fails
