| * | Zero or more matches |

The following code illustrates the use of the PatternMatch method.
bool bRet1 = McHttpModule.PatternMatch("text","*");		// return true
bool bRet1 = McHttpModule.PatternMatch("text","*e?t");	// return true
bool bRet1 = McHttpModule.PatternMatch("text","*exx");	// return false
bool bRet1 = McHttpModule.PatternMatch("text","t?et");	// return true
bool bRet1 = McHttpModule.PatternMatch("text","??e?");	// return false
bool bRet1 = McHttpModule.PatternMatch("text","t*t*");	// return true
