Method Detail

cleanPath

public static String cleanPath(String path)

Normalize the path by suppressing sequences like "path/.." and inner simple dots.

The result is convenient for path comparison. For other uses, notice that Windows separators ("\") are replaced by simple slashes.

Parameters:

path - the original path

Returns:

the normalized path

replace

public static String replace(String inString,
                             String oldPattern,
                             String newPattern)

Replace all occurrences of a substring within a string with another string.

Parameters:

inString - String to examine

oldPattern - String to replace

newPattern - String to insert

Returns:

a String with the replacements

collectionToDelimitedString

public static String collectionToDelimitedString(Collection<String> coll,
                                                 String delim)

Convenience method to return a Collection as a delimited (e.g. CSV) String. E.g. useful for toString() implementations.

Parameters:

coll - the Collection to display

delim - the delimiter to use (probably a ",")

Returns:

the delimited String

normalizePath

public static String normalizePath(String path)

Normalize the path by removing occurrences of "..".

Parameters:

path - to normalize.
