filenames

Hello, I need to implement

File[] files = getFiles( String folderName, String ptrn );

Where ptrn is a command prompt style pattern like "*2010*.txt"

I'm familar with FilenameFilter class, but can't implement public boolean accept(File dir, String filename) because String.matches() doesn't accept such patterns.

Thanks!
