Wildcard handling in "org.jboss.metadata.MethodAttributes.patternMatches()" isn't correct (or documentation problem)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBAS-3816
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3816
             Project: JBoss Application Server
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.0.5.GA
            Reporter: Anders Welen
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: JBossBug.tgz

The method "patternMatches" in "org.jboss.metadata.MethodAttributes" just stops at the first wildcard ("*") found and assumes that match is ok. Either this is a bug or the documentation ("http://docs.jboss.com/jbossas/guides/j2eeguide/r2/en/html_single/#d0e11084") should be changed and clearly inform that the wildcard must be the last character.

If you specify for example "*get*" than all methods will be matched....
