Class Jdk8

java.lang.Object

com.kamikazejam.kamicommon.util.Jdk8

@Internal
public final class Jdk8
extends Object

Stand-ins for String methods added after Java 8.

KamiCommon's always-loaded modules target Java 8 so that 1.8.x servers can load them, which rules out String.repeat(int) and String.strip(), both Java 11. These are the same operations, spelled for Java 8.

Internal. Use the JDK methods directly in your own code; this exists only because this library cannot.

Method Details

repeat

@NotNull
public static @NotNull String repeat(@NotNull
 @NotNull String value,
 int count)

Stand-in for String.repeat(int), which is Java 11.

Parameters:

value - the string to repeat

count - how many times, must not be negative

Returns:

the repeated string

strip

@NotNull
public static @NotNull String strip(@NotNull
 @NotNull String value)

Stand-in for String.strip(), which is Java 11.

Deliberately not trim(): trim cuts everything at or below U+0020, which drops control characters it should not and keeps Unicode spaces it should. This uses Character.isWhitespace(int), as strip() does.

Parameters:

value - the string to strip

Returns:

the string without leading or trailing whitespace
