Going over Ken Fitzpatrick's suggested new methods:
getClassNameOnly( Object o ) : String => ClassUtils.getClassNameOnly. DONE
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
getNumerics( String s ) : String /** Returns only the numeric contents of s */
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
getProperCase( String s ) : String /** Returns proper-case equivalent of
the
contents of s (ex: return "Bob Smith" from "bob smith") */
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
getBoolean( String s ) : boolean - Already Added :) DONE. Doesn't do t/f,
y/n, 1/0, +/-, Yep/Nope etc.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
getTrueOrFalse( boolean b ) : String /** Returns the equivalent of b as
either "True" or "False" */ ... other methods to support inverse of
previous
method (ex: getYesOrNo, getOnOrOff, etc.)
I guess. Seems a bit weak :) I'm not a big ternary fan, but:
b ? "Yes" : "No" seems simple. Or a simple if/else. Or ChoiceFormat?
Dunno. N methods seem a bit poor. And ""+b will give true/false.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
concatWithConditionalIntermediate - Ordinarily I'd have pooh-poohed this
one. But it's the second time it's been suggested. It's basically a join
that handles empty elements specially.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
getHexCharsToByteArray. This was around. ByteArrays class. I've got it
still sitting on my local repo. I think it went to Lang from Util then to
Codec or something silly. I still think it's useful, but it's been vetoed
in the past.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
getValueSubstitutedString. This is an instance of Interpolator in
Commons-Sandbox Util.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
getDumpFormat. I thought this was in Util, or Codec, or somewhere..
HexDump class.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
getCharValue - Turn a String like "31" into the character that equals,
"1". I think this is too specific, and not hard to do anyway.
""+(char)NumberUtils.stringToInt("31");
or something??
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
SQL
===
getSqlEscapedColumnValue( String s ) : String /** Returns an SQL-based
escaped
equivalent of s (ex: map "Bob's" to "Bob''s", etc.) */
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
getSqlWhereEqualsColumnValueOrIsNull( String s ) : String /** Returns "=
'[s]'"
(if s != null) or "is null" (if s == null) for safely building SQL Where
Clause
Predicates like "ColumnName = 'Bob'" or "ColumnName is null" */
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
getSqlColumnValueOrNull( String s ) : String /** Returns s or the String
"null"
such that the returned value can be used to safely build an SQL Update.Set
Clause, Insert.Values Clause, etc. as "Set Col=[s]" where s is the value
returned from this method ... Overloads for Date, Integer, ... */
I'm interested in all three of these Sql methods being added to DbUtils in
the Commons-Sandbox :) Could you provide your implemetnations Ken?
