mysqlnd_ms_match_wild - Finds whether a table name matches a wildcard pattern or not

SYNOPSIS

       bool mysqlnd_ms_match_wild (string  $table_name, string	$wildcard)

DESCRIPTION

	Finds whether a table name matches a wildcard pattern or not.

	This  function	is  not of much practical relevance with PECL mysqlnd_ms 1.1.0 because the plugin does not support MySQL replication table
       filtering yet.

PARAMETERS

	      o $table_name
		- The table name to check if it is matched by the wildcard.

	      o $wildcard
		- The wildcard pattern to check against the table name. The wildcard pattern supports the same placeholders as	MySQL  replication
		filters do.  MySQL replication filters can be configured by using the MySQL Server configuration options --replicate-wild-do-table
		and --replicate-wild-do-db. Please, consult the MySQL Reference Manual to learn more about this MySQL Server  feature.	 The  sup-
		ported placeholders are:

		     o % - zero or more literals

		     o _ - one literal

	       Placeholders can be escaped using .

RETURN VALUES

	Returns TRUE table_name is matched by wildcard. Otherwise, returns FALSE

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      mysqlnd_ms_match_wild(3) example

	      <?php
	      var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("schema_name.table_name", "schema%"));
	      var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("abc", "_"));
	      var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("table1", "table_"));
	      var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("asia_customers", "%customers"));
	      var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("funny%table","funny\%table"));
	      var_dump(mysqlnd_ms_match_wild("funnytable", "funny%table"));
	      ?>

	      The above example will output:

	      bool(true)
	      bool(false)
	      bool(true)
	      bool(true)
