Hi folks,
I know, this is not the right place to ask, but may be
one of you have a quick solution.
We need a function to see if input MIGHT match.
Which means, we would like to check if a string matches
NOT AFTER typing in the whole string, BUT MEANWHILE
the user is typing.
For example if the pattern is "[0-9][0-9].*B", we
would like to return YES if the user just typed in
"34tf", but NO if he typed in "a34".
I know, this is not the right place to ask, but maybe
one of you have a quick solution.
Anyway where is the right place for such questions ?
