- Method Detail
  - add
```
MultiStringMatcher.Builder add(java.lang.String... searchStrings)
```
    Adds search strings to be looked for. null and empty strings in the arguments are ignored.
    
    Parameters:
    
    searchStrings - to add to be looked for by the matcher.
    
    Returns:
    
    this
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the MultiStringMatcher was already built.
  - build
```
MultiStringMatcher build()
```
    Returns the MultiStringMatcher built by this builder.
    Note that a MultiStringMatcher.Builder instance can build only one MultiStringMatcher instance. This is by design; otherwise the builder would have to store all the searchStrings somewhere, which may be rather memory intensive if a lot of search strings are added.
    
    Returns:
    
    the MultiStringMatcher
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the MultiStringMatcher was already built.
