I know that there are several related tools in this area, but I'm not sure from a superficial look exactly which one I need.I just need to have a string with occurrences of substrings like "${foo}", and I need to be able to replace that with a value specified at run time. I need to do this directly from Java, and I nee to be able to specify both the variables (like "foo") and what values will be substituted for them. I thought I would do this with JEXL, but that seems to just take a string like "foo" and not "... Stuff ... ${foo} ...". I imagine I could do this semi-manually, by searching for "${.*}" and processing the contents. If there's no packaged way to do this already, I'll go down that path. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Have a look at Digester's "org.apache.commons.digester.substitution" package. From the javadocs, it looks like MultiVariableExpander can do what you're asking for.
