As always, when regular expressions are used, they are regular expressions with default flags.
When using anytableExtends,recordExtends, etc. setting, you must make sure to correctly implement the internal jOOQ APIs, which are not documented here for they are internal. In particular, if you're extendingorg.jooq.impl.TableImpl, for example, your custom base class may break between minor versions of jOOQ, as new constructors are added.
See MatcherRule for more information about MatcherRule specifications.
