             Summary: Wildcard matching should always respect delimiters
                 Key: ARTEMIS-1403
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-1403
             Project: ActiveMQ Artemis
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.3.0
            Reporter: Christopher L. Shannon
            Assignee: Christopher L. Shannon
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.4.0


Here is what I originally posted on the dev list.  There is a bug with wildcard 
matching that will return a string is a match to a pattern even though the last 
delimiter is missing.

>From my original post:

{quote}I noticed a difference with wildcard matching in Artemis from 5.x and I 
think the Artemis version is wrong.

Let's take the following wildcard pattern as an example in Artemis: a.b.c.#

Pattern   Matches?
a.b.c         yes
a.b.c.d      yes
a.b.cabd   yes

Example in ActiveMQ 5.x: a.b.c.>

Pattern   Matches?
a.b.c         yes
a.b.c.d      yes
a.b.cabd   no

It does not make sense to me that a.b.cabd would match a.b.c.#.  This happens 
because the matching logic just replaces .# with .* in a regex matching pattern 
so it matches 0 or many characters.  There is a delimiter there so I think the 
5.x approach is correct.  Also maybe we should allow user's to be able to plug 
in custom matching logic to override the default?  (This is something i can do 
in a PR){quote}
