Wildcards * and >
To understand the rules for inheritance of properties, it is important to understand the use of the two wildcards, * and >.
- The wildcard > by itself matches any destination name.
- When > is mixed with text, it matches one or more trailing elements. For example:
foo.>
Matches foo.bar, foo.boo, foo.boo.bar, and foo.bar.boo.
- The wildcard * means that any token can be in the place of *. For example:
foo.*
Matches foo.bar and foo.boo, but not foo.bar.boo.
foo.*.bar
Matches foo.boo.bar, but not foo.bar.
