Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCORE-47:
-------------------------------------------

Roland,

With all due respect I do not think this is a legitimate issue. Pattern matching based on wildcards is inherently ambiguous. The algorithm used by HttpRequestHandlerRegistry is also used by Spring framework, for instance. If it is good enough for Spring, I do not see why it should not be good enough for HttpCore

> HttpRequestHandlerRegistry uses pattern matching to determine the handler to use.
> The best match comparison is exclusively based on pattern length and therefore ambiguos:
> patterns "/ma*" and "*tch" both match "/match".
