Benedikt Ritter commented on LANG-1046:
---------------------------------------
Okay, how about this:
{code:java}
assertTrue(StringUtils.containsPattern("alphabet", "alpha.*"));
assertTrue(StringUtils.containsPattern("alphabet", "alph."));
assertTrue(StringUtils.containsPattern("alphabet", "ph.b"));
{code}
> containsPattern method for StringUtils?

> The JVM Matcher class only supports anchored matches.
> It might perhaps be useful to add a containsPattern(CharSequence input,
> String pattern) method that returns true if the input contains the pattern.
