StringUtils.truncate() to cut out middle part of a String
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: LANG-405
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-405
Project: Commons Lang
Issue Type: New Feature
Affects Versions: 2.2
Reporter: Gregor B. Rosenauer
Priority: Minor
It would be handy to have a String method that cuts out the middle part of a
String such that as much as possible is kept from the start and end of the
String, but the middle part is replaced by an ellipsis "..."
BeOS had a function like this, but it's poorly documented, missing examples:
http://www.beunited.org/bebook/The%20Support%20Kit/String.html#Truncate()
e.g.:
A very long text with unimportant stuff in the middle but interesting start and
end to see if the text is complete.
becomes:
A very long text...to see if the text is complete.
