In-Depth Information
Checking starts in this string at the position
start
, and in the
other
string at position
ostart
. Only the first
count
characters
are compared.
public boolean
regionMatches(boolean ignoreCase, int start, String
other, int ostart, int count)
This version of
regionMatches
behaves exactly like the previous
one, but the boolean
ignoreCase
controls whether case is sig-
nificant.
For example:
class RegionMatch {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String str = "Look, look!";
boolean b1, b2, b3;
b1 = str.regionMatches(6, "Look", 0, 4);
b2 = str.regionMatches(true, 6, "Look", 0, 4);
b3 = str.regionMatches(true, 6, "Look", 0, 5);
System.out.println("b1 = " + b1);
System.out.println("b2 = " + b2);
System.out.println("b3 = " + b3);
}
}
Here is its output:
b1 = false
b2 = true
b3 = false
