    • match

      public boolean match(A target)
      Attempts to match this pattern against a given object.

      If the class of this pattern imposes a specific order on matches, the first one is chosen.

      The null target is generally allowed.

      The default implementation delegates to body.

      Parameters:
      target - the object to match against
      Returns:
      true if the matching is successful, false if it fails. Which Variables are bound by a successful or failed match depends.
