Declaration

public static bool FuzzyMatch(string pattern, string origin, ref long outScore, List<int> matches);

Declaration

public static bool FuzzyMatch(string pattern, string origin, List<int> matches);

Parameters

pattern The pattern that the method is searching for in the string.
origin The string the method is searching.
outScore If there is a match, this parameter contains the match score. The higher the match score, the closer the pattern matched a part of the given string.
matches List of indices in the string where the pattern was found.

Returns

bool Returns true if a match was found.

Description

Performs a fuzzy search for a pattern on a string.

        // Define what this operator does, and which types it operates on.
        queryEngine.AddOperatorHandler(op, (string ev, string fv) => FuzzySearch.FuzzyMatch(fv, ev));
