Using Wildcards
To register or cancel a subscription for multiple event types, you can use a single wildcard character, *, at the end of the event type name. To subscribe to all the event types within the scope of Sample, you could use the following event type name:
Sample::*
If you use wildcards in the event type name, the following restrictions apply:
*Only those event types that your client has permission to subscribe to will be included in the subscription.
*Wildcards cannot be used with any event type within the scope of Broker::Trace or Broker::Activity.
*If a filter string is specified for the subscription, it might not contain any data fields. The filter string might contain envelope fields, however.
