Class SearchMatcher

java.lang.Object

org.apache.wiki.search.SearchMatcher

public class SearchMatcher
extends Object

SearchMatcher performs the task of matching a search query to a page's contents. This utility class is isolated to simplify WikiPageProvider implementations and to offer an easy target for upgrades. The upcoming(?) TranslatorReader rewrite will presumably invalidate this, among other things.

Since:

2.1.5
