      • buildRegexFilterIncludeOverExclude

        public static Predicate<String> buildRegexFilterIncludeOverExclude​(@NonNull Collection<Pattern> includeRegexes,
                                                                   @NonNull Collection<Pattern> excludeRegexes)
        Builds a string filter using a set of include and exclude regular expressions. A string S matches the predicate if either
        • 1. no exclude regex matches S, or
        • 2. some include regex matches S
        In other words, include patterns override exclude patterns.
        Parameters:
        includeRegexes - Regular expressions overriding the excludes.
        excludeRegexes - Regular expressions filtering strings out.
        Returns:
        A predicate for strings.
