join

public static String join(List elements)

Joins together some number of elements to form a comma separated list.

join

public static String join(List elements,
                          String separator)

Joins together some number of elements. If a value in the list is the empty string, it is replaced with the string "(blank)".

Parameters:

elements - objects to be joined together

separator - used between elements when joining

joinSorted

public static String joinSorted(Collection elements)

Creates a sorted copy of the provided elements, then turns that into a comma separated list.

Returns:

the elements converted to strings, sorted, joined with comma ... or "(none)" if the elements are null or empty

isBlank

public static boolean isBlank(String input)

Returns true if the input is null, or is a zero length string (excluding leading/trailing whitespace).

isNonBlank

public static boolean isNonBlank(String input)

capitalize

public static String capitalize(String input)

Capitalizes a string, converting the first character to uppercase.

locationOf

public static Location locationOf(Object location)

Sniffs the object to see if it is a Location or Locatable. Returns null if null or not convertable to a location.

sortedKeys

public static List<String> sortedKeys(Map map)

Extracts the string keys from a map and returns them in sorted order. The keys are converted to strings.

Parameters:

map - the map to extract keys from (may be null)

Returns:

the sorted keys, or the empty set if map is null

keys

public static <K,V> Set<K> keys(Map<K,V> map)

get

public static <K,V> V get(Map<K,V> map,
                          K key)

Gets a value from a map (which may be null).

Type Parameters:

K -

V -

Parameters:

map - the map to extract from (may be null)

key -

Returns:

the value from the map, or null if the map is null

isStatic

public static boolean isStatic(Method method)

Returns true if the method provided is a static method.

reverseIterator

public static <T> Iterator<T> reverseIterator(List<T> list)

containsSymbols

public static boolean containsSymbols(String input)

Return true if the input string contains the marker for symbols that must be expanded.

lastTerm

public static String lastTerm(String input)

Searches the string for the final period ('.') character and returns everything after that. The input string is generally a fully qualified class name, though tapestry-core also uses this method for the occasional property expression (which is also dot separated). Returns the input string unchanged if it does not contain a period character.

findAutobuildConstructor

public static Constructor findAutobuildConstructor(Class clazz)

Searches a class for the "best" constructor, the public constructor with the most parameters. Returns null if there are no public constructors. If there is more than one constructor with the maximum number of parameters, it is not determined which will be returned (don't build a class like that!). In addition, if a constructor is annotated with Inject, it will be used (no check for multiple such constructors is made, only at most a single constructor should have the annotation).

Parameters:

clazz - to search for a constructor for

Returns:

the constructor to be used to instantiate the class, or null if no appropriate constructor was found

addToMapList

public static <K,V> void addToMapList(Map<K,List<V>> map,
                                      K key,
                                      V value)

Adds a value to a specially organized map where the values are lists of objects. This somewhat simulates a map that allows mutiple values for the same key.

Type Parameters:

K - the type of key

V - the type of the list

Parameters:

map - to store value into

key - for which a value is added

value - to add

validateMarkerAnnotation

public static void validateMarkerAnnotation(Class markerClass)

Validates that the marker annotation class had a retention policy of runtime.

Parameters:

markerClass - the marker annotation class

validateMarkerAnnotations

public static void validateMarkerAnnotations(Class[] markerClasses)

close

public static void close(Closeable stream)

toMessage

public static String toMessage(Throwable exception)

Extracts the message from an exception. If the exception's message is null, returns the exceptions class name.

Parameters:

exception - to extract message from

Returns:

message or class name

validateConstructorForAutobuild

public static void validateConstructorForAutobuild(Constructor constructor)

toServiceDef2

public static ServiceDef2 toServiceDef2(ServiceDef sd)

toModuleDef2

public static ModuleDef2 toModuleDef2(ModuleDef md)
