Method Detail

replaceTokens

public static String replaceTokens(String source,
                                   NamespaceMap nsMap,
                                   TokenDelimiterSpec tds)

Replace tokens in source String with values from a NamespaceMap.

For example, if string is: value1,value2,value3 and the delimiter is ',', then return an array of 3 Strings.

Parameters:

source - the source String containing tokens to be parsed and replaced.

nsMap - the NamespaceMap containing the values that will replace tokens.

tds - the TokenDelmiterSpec that provides information on the syntax of tokens, including the delmiters for start, end, and namespace.

Returns:

a new String with tokens replace by values from the NamespaceMap. If the source string does not contain any tokens, the original String is returned. If the source String contains tokens that cannot be resolved, the tokens are replaced by an empty string. NOTE: if unresolved tokens are an error, then use method: replaceTokens2

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the NamespaceMap or TokenDelimiterSpec are null.
