The StringUtil utility class is an all-static class with methods for
working with String objects within Flex.
You do not create instances of StringUtil;
instead you call methods such as
the
StringUtil.substitute() method.
public static function isWhitespace(character:String):Boolean
Returns true if the specified string is
a single space, tab, carriage return, newline, or formfeed character.
Parameters
| character:String — The String that is is being queried.
|
Returns
| Boolean — true if the specified string is
a single space, tab, carriage return, newline, or formfeed character.
|
public static function substitute(str:String, ... rest):String
Substitutes "{n}" tokens within the specified string
with the respective arguments passed in.
Parameters
| str:String — The string to make substitutions in.
This string can contain special tokens of the form
{n}, where n is a zero based index,
that will be replaced with the additional parameters
found at that index if specified.
|
| |
| ... rest — Additional parameters that can be substituted
in the str parameter at each {n}
location, where n is an integer (zero based)
index value into the array of values specified.
If the first parameter is an array this array will be used as
a parameter list.
This allows reuse of this routine in other methods that want to
use the ... rest signature.
For example
public function myTracer(str:String, ... rest):void
{
label.text += StringUtil.substitute(str, rest) + "\n";
}
|
Returns
| String — New string with all of the {n} tokens
replaced with the respective arguments specified.
|
Example
var str:String = "here is some info '{0}' and {1}";
trace(StringUtil.substitute(str, 15.4, true));
// this will output the following string:
// "here is some info '15.4' and true"
public static function trim(str:String):String
Removes all whitespace characters from the beginning and end
of the specified string.
Parameters
| str:String — The String whose whitespace should be trimmed.
|
Returns
| String — Updated String where whitespace was removed from the
beginning and end.
|
public static function trimArrayElements(value:String, delimiter:String):String
Removes all whitespace characters from the beginning and end
of each element in an Array, where the Array is stored as a String.
Parameters
| value:String — The String whose whitespace should be trimmed.
|
| |
| delimiter:String — The String that delimits each Array element in the string.
|
Returns
| String — Updated String where whitespace was removed from the
beginning and end of each element.
