Search pattern in string using wildcard in Delphi?

Question

I used to use HYPERSTR library for string processing routine. Now I use newer Delphi. I need to search a pattern in a string, for example the old function is function IsMa

Answer 1

if ? represent a single character:

  if TRegEx.IsMatch('abcdef', 'abcd.f') then
    showmessage('match');

if ? represent any sting:

  if TRegEx.IsMatch('abcdef', 'abcd.*f') then
    showmessage('match');

Don't have XE so haven't tested.
