Viacheslav Kabanovich commented on JBIDE-4576:
----------------------------------------------
I added "Expression" option instead of "Case sensitive".
When "Expression" is not selected (as by default), filter is case insensitive,
that complies with JBIDE-4572.
When "Expression" is selected, filter uses _regular expressions_ which are case
sensitive.
In the expression mode, the filter will accept any string that contains the expression in
it (so that substring search works in both modes).
To find the exact match, use sequences \A and \z in expression. For example, expression
"\Adate\z" matches only string "date"; expression "\Adate"
matches "date" and "dateline", expression "date\z" matches
"date" and "Begin date", and expression "date" matches all
of them.
If expression has a syntax error, it is reported in a label below the filter composite,
and the filter is disabled (all properties are displayed).
Please note, that regular expression syntax does not use "*" for any characters
and "?" for any one character, as it is suggested in the description. You have
to use "." for any one character and ".*" for any characters. Symbols
"*" and "?" are used to show that the preceding token is not required,
for example, "a.a" matches "aba" but not "aa", while
"a.?a" or a.*a" matches both; besides "a.*a" matches
"abcda".
