How to replace string

Hi Experts,
This is not jdeveloper question, but still i am asking, becoz i dont know other blogs......:(
I want to replace one string, i am using StringUtils.replace(originalString,searchString,replacedString) everthing is working fine but if my
originalString:"1,65.0000,65.0000,1,MMMF,Current,SHTC,"
searchString:originalString[3]-- 1
replacedString: testing
so finally string is : :"testing,65.0000,65.0000,testing,MMMF,Current,SHTC," -- its wrong because i thought to change only 3rd element from the array, but the same 1 is there in both positions i tried with
StringUtils.replace(originalString,searchString,replacedString,occurences) when i put occurences as 1 then its changing 0th element.
can any one suggest me how to resolve this issue.
sorry if this question causes inconvinence to any one.
Any inputs could be highly appreciate.

http://commons.apache.org/ is probably the best place for you to look around (they have a mailing list) - I assume you are using their StringUtils

To answer your original question, I know of now easy way of processing your clips and replacing the existing ones already edited.
If I have this right you have your sequence fully edited?
There is a workaround, messy and time consuming but it will not spoil the video element of the sequence.
Process: -
Drag the audio for each clip so that it is on a track with space at either end of it.
Unlink each clip.
For every audio clip extend each audio's head and tail
Then use the edit in Audition link
The clips are individually processed
Then you can go back adjust the head and tail to what you want and fade out and in as you wish.
I'd manually fade each clip rather than add an audio transition
Take care not to alter the video clips at any time or you will go out of sync
Hope this helps

So your data is stored in XML. So what? You haven't asked a question about the XML or how to format it or how to access it. You asked a question that had nothing to do with XML at all. It's as if you said "My data is stored on a Windows computer so I will call Microsoft's support line to ask them this question."
And I can't even suggest a suitable forum because a "text area" could be an AWT component or an HTML component. But I do suggest you ask in the right place.

How to replace the char values into numeric in my string?

Hi Sridhar,
I would like to Replace the Charecter values with numeric value in my string.
Exp : first in my string I am having the value like this : 'ABCD1234' ( may be any char and num values ), and I want too get it by '99991234'.
So, if i understand you correctly, you want to replace all characters in a string with 9 as in the above example, irrespective of position of the character, if so try with the below code.
DATA: l_str TYPE string.
l_str = 'ASKHSIUDNSBDKJSDH124312431243124saasdfsf'.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX '\D' IN l_str WITH '9'.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
WRITE: l_str. "Result will be 9999999999999999912431243124312499999999
ENDIF.

Flash Charts - How to manipulate the #data# replacement string in XML

I have a problem with the XML file for a flash chart. I am trying to display a 2dColumn chart of an SQL query with the general form:
select null link, x as name, sum(y) as value from z group by (x);
this generates multiple rows, which are displayed as a bar in the chart. So far so good. The problem is, that each row is defined as a block in the chart, but only one name entry is created "value", which is displayed in the legend of the chart.
I can display the block names on the x-axis of the chart, however, I can't rotate them, so that they don't overlap in the display, which I would be able to do with names. I assume, that the blocks are defined in the #data# replacement string of the XML file. I would like to change the generated XML replacement string from the SQL to make each row selected a different name, and only have one block ("value").
What would be the easiest way to achieve this?

user587996,
There's no way to manipulate the #data# replacement directly, but you could generate your own XML (see Re: Apex changing nulls to zeroes when creating Flash Charts for one way to do it).
When you say "I can't rotate them, so that they don't overlap in the display" -- have you tried the Labels Rotation chart attribute, or is that not working?

How to use String.replaceAll(String regex, String replacement)?

hi,
I'd like to use the String.replaceAll call to replace all occurrences of a pattern in a string with a string inputted from the user.
The problem is that replaceAll seems process the replacement string first. For example, the code below won't work
public class StringTest {
     public static void main(String [] arg) throws Exception {
          String input = "oooIoooIooo";
          input=input.replaceAll("I","\\");
          System.out.println(input);
}So the only option seems to be to manually process the user input string into a form that can be accepted by String.replaceAll?
The only thing I can find from looking through the API is that you'd need to convert each backslash to a double-backslash?
is this the right thing to be doing?
thanks,
asjf

just to clarify, at the moment I think the solution is to do this
public class StringTest {
     public static void main(String [] arg) throws Exception {
          String input = "oooIoooIooo";
          String raw = "\\";
          input=input.replaceAll("I",raw.replaceAll("\\\\","\\\\\\\\"));
          System.out.println(input);
}

How do i do a Advance replace string logic?

Hi all,
I have an issue on writing a logic to replace a string in a sentence
Suppose i fill in 3 input
1st input - *"The Name contains 'Test1' and 'Test2' and this is it"*
2nd input - *"The Name contains \"{mercName1}\" and \"{mercName2}\" and this is it"*
3rd input - *"(\"{mercName1}\")) and (\"{mercName2}\"))"*
The logic will compare 1st input and 2nd input, then replace mercName1/mercName2, and the output should be like this
output - *("'Test1'")) and ("'Test2'"))*
Currently i have make it works and here's the logic
public class ReplaceString {
 private String getRuleMap(String strRuleC_DRL, String strRuleM_Desc, String strRuleM_Map) {
 String[] strRuleC_DRL_split = strRuleC_DRL.split(" ");
 String[] strRuleM_Desc_split = strRuleM_Desc.split(" ");
 Map compareMap = new HashMap();
 if(strRuleC_DRL_split.length == strRuleM_Desc_split.length) {
 for(int x=0; x<strRuleC_DRL_split.length; x++) {
 int compare = strRuleC_DRL_split[x].compareTo(strRuleM_Desc_split[x]);
 if(compare != 0) {
 compareMap.put(strRuleM_Desc_split[x].replaceAll("\"", ""), strRuleC_DRL_split[x].replaceAll("\"", ""));
 if(!compareMap.isEmpty()) {
 Iterator keyIter = compareMap.keySet().iterator();
 while(keyIter.hasNext()) {
 String theKey = keyIter.next().toString();
 String theValue = compareMap.get(theKey).toString();
 if(strRuleM_Map.indexOf(theKey) > 0) {
 strRuleM_Map = this.replace(strRuleM_Map, theKey, theValue);
 return strRuleM_Map;
 private String replace(String source, String pattern, String replace) {
 if (source!=null) {
 final int len = pattern.length();
 StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
 int found = -1;
 int start = 0;
 while( (found = source.indexOf(pattern, start) ) != -1) {
 sb.append(source.substring(start, found));
 sb.append(replace);
 start = found + len;
 sb.append(source.substring(start));
 return sb.toString();
 else return "";
 * @param args
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 // TODO Auto-generated method stub
 ReplaceString rs = new ReplaceString();
 System.out.println(rs.getRuleMap("The Name contains 'Test1' and 'Test2' and this is it", "The Name contains \"{mercName1}\" and \"{mercName2}\" and this is it", "(\"{mercName1}\")) and (\"{mercName2}\"))"));
}Now, here's the problem, when i key in
input - *"The Name contains 'Test1 and Test2' and 'Test3 and Test 4' and this is it"*
i expect the output should be
output - *("'Test1 and Test2'")) and ("'Test3 and Test4'"))*
but i hit problem cause the string compare is only 1 to 1
Is there any advice? Thanks

You could try to use regular expressions?

How to replace NULL values from main table

Dear all,
I like to remove the NULL values from a main table field. Or the question is how to replace any part of the string field in MDM repository main table field.
e.g. I have a middle name field partly the value is NULL in some hundreds of records, I like to replace NULL values with Space
any recommendation.
Regards,
Naeem

Hi Naeem,
You can try using Workflows for automatically replacing NULLs with any specific value.
What you can do is: Create a workflow and set trigger action as Record Import, Record Create and Record Update. So, that whenever any change will occur in the repository; that workflow will trigger.
Now create an assignment expression for replacing NULLs with any specific value and use that assignment expression in your workflow by using Assign Step in workflow.
For exiting records, you will have to replace NULLs manually using the process given by Preethi else you can export those records in an Excel spreadsheet which have NULLs and then replace all NULLs with any string value and then reimport those records in your MDM repository.
Hope this will solve your problem.
Regards,
Varun

Hi Rio,
I faced similar kind of issue working with files on UNIX platform.
The line is a line feed to remove it use
DATA : lv_carr_linefd TYPE abap_cr_lf VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf.
DATA : lv_carr_return TYPE char1,
         lv_line_feed   TYPE char1.
lv_line_feed   = lv_carr_linefd(1).
lv_carr_return = lv_carr_linefd+1(1).
Note: IMP: The character in ' ' is not space but is a special
character set by pressing ALT and +255 simultaneosly
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF lv_line_feed IN l_string WITH ' '.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF lv_carr_return IN l_string WITH ' '.
