Wildcard handling in "org.jboss.metadata.MethodAttributes.patternMatches()" isn't correct (or documentation problem)

      I've written some JUnit tests and a solution using the String.matches method.

      The method "patternMatches" in "org.jboss.metadata.MethodAttributes" just stops at the first wildcard ("*") found and assumes that match is ok. Either this is a bug or the documentation ("http://docs.jboss.com/jbossas/guides/j2eeguide/r2/en/html_single/#d0e11084") should be changed and clearly inform that the wildcard must be the last character.

      If you specify for example "*get" than all methods will be matched....
