public abstract class StringUtils
Miscellaneous String
utility methods.
Mainly for internal use within the framework; consider Jakarta's Commons Lang for a more comprehensive suite of String utilities.
This class delivers some simple functionality that should really
be provided by the core Java String
and StringBuffer
classes, such as the ability to replace(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
all occurrences of a given
substring in a target string. It also provides easy-to-use methods to convert
between delimited strings, such as CSV strings, and collections and arrays.
