Hi all ,

I'm trying to find files dit.xml under particular directories.

Rather than mentioning the directories as a list like below

Path : [ /opt/local/version_v1.3.1 , /opt/local/version_v1.3.0 ]

I tried /opt/local/version_v1.3.* and it didn't work.

Actually I have dit.xml files under /opt/local/version_v1.5.0 which I don't want to modify.

That's y looking for regex for paths.

Is it possible? Kindly suggest

Since it's not in the documentation it's not supported.

What you could do is first a find that finds the directories and exclude the once you don't want.
The result of that find is used in the second find to find the correct files.
