/**
* Returns a search pattern based on a given string pattern. The string
* patterns support '*' wild-cards. The remaining parameters are used to
* narrow down the type of expected results.
*
* <br>
* Examples:
* <ul>
* <li>search for case insensitive references to <code>Object</code>:
* <code>createSearchPattern("Object", TYPE, REFERENCES, false);</code></li>
* <li>search for case sensitive references to exact <code>Object()</code>
* constructor:
* <code>createSearchPattern("java.lang.Object()", CONSTRUCTOR, REFERENCES, true);</code></li>
* <li>search for implementers of <code>java.lang.Runnable</code>:
* <code>createSearchPattern("java.lang.Runnable", TYPE, IMPLEMENTORS, true);</code></li>
* </ul>
*
* @param stringPattern
* the given pattern
* @param searchFor
* determines the nature of the searched elements
* <ul>
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.CLASS</code>: only look for
* classes</li>
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.INTERFACE</code>: only look for
* interfaces</li>
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.TYPE</code>: look for both classes
* and interfaces</li>
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.FIELD</code>: look for fields</li>
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.METHOD</code>: look for
* methods</li>
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.CONSTRUCTOR</code>: look for
* constructors</li>
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.PACKAGE</code>: look for
* packages</li>
* </ul>
* @param limitTo
* determines the nature of the expected matches
* <ul>
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.DECLARATIONS</code>: will search
* declarations matching with the corresponding element. In case the
* element is a method, declarations of matching methods in subtypes
* will also be found, allowing to find declarations of abstract
* methods, etc.</li>
*
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.REFERENCES</code>: will search
* references to the given element.</li>
*
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.ALL_OCCURRENCES</code>: will search
* for either declarations or references as specified above.</li>
*
* <li><code>IJavaSearchConstants.IMPLEMENTORS</code>: for interface,
* will find all types which implements a given interface.</li>
* </ul>
*
* @param isCaseSensitive
* indicates whether the search is case sensitive or not.
* @return a search pattern on the given string pattern, or
* <code>null</code> if the string pattern is ill-formed.
* @deprecated Use
* {@link SearchPattern#createPattern(String, int, int, int)}
* instead.
