Pattern field, Methods tab, Filter Manager: Memory Profiling Data Dialog Box

Type a pattern string to use to remove from the current dataset all classes and methods whose fully qualified names contain matching character strings. Purify uses the fully qualified name to match patterns, regardless of settings in the Method Name dialog box.

Use an asterisk (*) to denote any character string; use a backslash (\) with the asterisk if the name itself contains an asterisk. For example:

This pattern

Matches any method whose name

Foo*

Begins with Foo and is followed by any string

*chr

Starts with any string and ends in chr

*font*

Contains font

delete(void\**

Is delete and whose first argument is void*
