virtual bool IsMatch(
	String^ textSoFar,
	int index
)

Parameters

textSoFar
Type: System::String^

[in] A string containing the text typed by the user and to be matched.

index
Type: System::Int32

[in] The index of the item to compare against.

Return Value

Type: System::Boolean

Returns true if the specified text is at the beginning of the specified item; otherwise, returns false.

This method is typically called by the GetBestMatch method to help find the best match for the text typed by the user.

The base method does a case-insensitive compare (using the String::Compare method) between the given text and the name of the given list item (as returned from a call to the GetName method), returning true if the item in the list begins with or exactly matches the given text.
