Class SimpleBoyerMoore

java.lang.Object

org.jboss.ws.core.soap.attachment.SimpleBoyerMoore

public class SimpleBoyerMoore
extends Object

SimpleBoyerMoore is an implementation of the simplified version of the Boyer-Moore pattern search algorithm. This just means that the "good match" portion of the algorithm is removed, which improves the performance of non repeating patterns with the obvious side-effect of reducing repeating pattern performance (e.g. gaggaggaaaggaggaagagaggaga). This version of the algorithm performs incredibly well if the pattern is rare, for example a MIME boundary. This algorithm is binary safe.

Constructor Detail

SimpleBoyerMoore

public SimpleBoyerMoore(byte[] pattern)

Constructs a SimpleBoyerMoore instance. This internally stores the pattern so that the same instance can be used across several searches.

Parameters:

pattern - the pattern to search for

Method Detail

patternSearch

public int patternSearch(byte[] text,
                int offset,
                int length)

Find an occurence of the search pattern within text.

Parameters:

text - a byte array of data to seach

offset - the index in text to start searching from

length - the maximum number of bytes to search

Returns:

if a match is found, the index of text where the patter occurs, otherwise PATTERN_NOT_FOUND
