I would like to know if it is possible to set regex options inside of .matches("(?:.bat)$");?
Note that due to a limitation imposed by my company, I can't use class java.util.regex.Pattern

Is that `String`'s `matches` method? – Federico klez Culloca May 13 '22 at 11:02

`(?m)`, `(?s)`, `(?i)` etc. – Wiktor Stribiżew May 13 '22 at 11:04

Do you mean like _ignore case_? If yes, then put `(?i)` at the start of your pattern, i.e. `.matches("(?i)(?:.bat)$");` Refer to _javadoc_ for class [java.util.regex.Pattern](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/17/docs/api/java.base/java/util/regex/Pattern.html) – Abra May 13 '22 at 11:05
