PathMatcher implementation for Ant-style path patterns. Examples are provided below.

Part of this mapping code has been kindly borrowed from .

The mapping matches URLs using the following rules:

• ? matches one character
• * matches zero or more characters
• ** matches zero or more 'directories' in a path

Some examples:

• com/t?st.jsp - matches com/test.jsp but also com/tast.jsp or com/txst.jsp
• com/*.jsp - matches all .jsp files in the com directory
• com/**/test.jsp - matches all test.jsp files underneath the com path
• org/springframework/**/*.jsp - matches all .jsp files underneath the org/springframework path
• org/**/servlet/bla.jsp - matches org/springframework/servlet/bla.jsp but also org/springframework/testing/servlet/bla.jsp and org/servlet/bla.jsp
