The help for Open Type says:

The following pattern kinds are supported:

Wildcards:

  • "*" for any string and "?" for any character
  • terminating "<" or " " (space) to prevent the automatic prefix matching, e.g. "java.*Access<" to match java.util.RandomAccess but not java.security.AccessControlContext

Camel case:

  • "TZ" for types containing "T" and "Z" as upper-case letters in camel-case notation, e.g. java.util.TimeZone

  • "NuPoEx" or "NuPo" for types containing "Nu", "Po", (and "Ex") as parts in camel-case notation, e.g. java.lang.NullPointerException

  • terminating "<" or " " (space) to fix the number of camel-case parts, e.g. "HMap<" and "HaMap<" match "HashMap" and "HatMapper", but not "HashMapEntry" nor "Hashmap".
