All Implemented Interfaces:

Variable

public final class StringVariable

extends java.lang.Object

implements Variable

Wraps a String and provides methods to format the contents [JDK1.0.2 compatible].

Field Summary

static int	ALIGN_CENTER When formatting a string to a specified minimum width, this constant says that the result should be aligned to the center.
static int	ALIGN_LEFT When formatting a string to a specified minimum width, this constant says that the result should be aligned to the left.
static int	ALIGN_RIGHT When formatting a string to a specified minimum width, this constant says that the result should be aligned to the right.
static int	NO_FLAGS When formatting a string to a specified minimum width, this constant says that the default format should be used [...].
static java.lang.Class	TYPE The class of this static object [...].

Constructor Summary

StringVariable()

StringVariable(java.lang.String s)
Wraps a string into an object just like java.lang.String does, but provides some additional methods.

Method Summary

char	charAt(int index)
boolean	equals(java.lang.Object o)
java.lang.Object	get()
static void	main(java.lang.String[] args)
static StringVariable[]	newArray(int length) Creates an array of length instance of this class.
void	set(java.lang.Object o)
void	set(java.lang.String s) Set a new value (String) [...].
static java.lang.String	toPaddedString(java.lang.String s, int minWidth, char leftPad, char rightPad, int flags) With this method you can align a string to the left, to the right or towards the center with space or ANY other character inserted to the left and to the right of the original string.
java.lang.String	toString()
static java.lang.String	toString(java.lang.String s) Create a String object from another String [...].
static java.lang.String	toString(java.lang.String s, int minWidth, int flags) Create a new String with specified minimum width and alignment according to the flags-parameter [...].
static java.lang.String	toUTFString(java.lang.String s) Convert a String into a new String in UTF-format.
static java.lang.String	toUTFString(java.lang.String s, int minWidth, int flags) Create a new String (in UTF-format) with specified minimum width and alignment according to the flags-parameter [...].
java.lang.String	trim()

Field Detail

NO_FLAGS

public static final int NO_FLAGS

When formatting a string to a specified minimum width, this constant says that the default format should be used [...]. See also ALIGN_LEFT, ALIGN_CENTER and ALIGN_RIGHT.

ALIGN_LEFT

public static final int ALIGN_LEFT

When formatting a string to a specified minimum width, this constant says that the result should be aligned to the left.

ALIGN_CENTER

public static final int ALIGN_CENTER

When formatting a string to a specified minimum width, this constant says that the result should be aligned to the center.

ALIGN_RIGHT

public static final int ALIGN_RIGHT

When formatting a string to a specified minimum width, this constant says that the result should be aligned to the right.

TYPE

public static final java.lang.Class TYPE

The class of this static object [...]. Provides a convenient way to check or compare the type.

Constructor Detail

StringVariable

public StringVariable()

StringVariable

public StringVariable(java.lang.String s)

Wraps a string into an object just like java.lang.String does, but provides some additional methods.

Method Detail

newArray

public static StringVariable[] newArray(int length)

Creates an array of length instance of this class.

set

public void set(java.lang.String s)

Set a new value (String) [...]. This is better than creating a new object all the time.

set

public void set(java.lang.Object o)

Specified by:

set in interface Variable

get

public java.lang.Object get()

Specified by:

get in interface Variable

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

charAt

public char charAt(int index)

trim

public java.lang.String trim()

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

toString

public static java.lang.String toString(java.lang.String s)

Create a String object from another String [...]. This method exists to make it consistent with other classes in com.braju.lang.

toString

public static java.lang.String toString(java.lang.String s,
                                        int minWidth,
                                        int flags)

Create a new String with specified minimum width and alignment according to the flags-parameter [...]. Provides an easy way to align a string to the left, the right och to the center. If flags is given the value NO_FLAGS then the string is aligned to the left.

toUTFString

public static java.lang.String toUTFString(java.lang.String s)

Convert a String into a new String in UTF-format.

toUTFString

public static java.lang.String toUTFString(java.lang.String s,
                                           int minWidth,
                                           int flags)

Create a new String (in UTF-format) with specified minimum width and alignment according to the flags-parameter [...]. Provides an easy way to align a string to the left, the right och to the center. If flags is given the value NO_FLAGS then the string is aligned to the left.

toPaddedString

public static java.lang.String toPaddedString(java.lang.String s,
                                              int minWidth,
                                              char leftPad,
                                              char rightPad,
                                              int flags)

With this method you can align a string to the left, to the right or towards the center with space or ANY other character inserted to the left and to the right of the original string.
