To trim a string

How could i trim a string from 29 bytes to 22 bytes.Please let me know ASAP

// assuming myString is length 29.
myString = myString.substring(0, 22);That's 29 characters, not 29 bytes. If you really mean bytes, you can do something like this:
byte[] myArray = myString.getBytes[]
byte[] newArray = new byte[22];
for (int count = 0; count < newArray.length; count++) {
newArray[count] = myArray[count];

How do I trim a string?

Is there a function in jsp 2.0 I can left trim or right trim a string?

Not sure qhat you are trying to do, but since you can call Java code from a JSP page, it should be relatively straightforward to invoke the trim function from the String class.

I get an error when I try to trim my string during run-time??

I am able to get the string inputted in without the trim.. but when i add the trim, the program screws up during run-time..
i have this in my code...
input = in.readLine();
when i put the following afterwards.. it doesn't work:
input = input.trim();
what should i do that I am not doing? or what am I doing wrong?

You don't specify what the error is, if it's a NullPointerException then you just need to check
if (input != null) {
String trimmed = input.trim();

About trim() for String

I am doing assignment to deal with the xml code,for every line I read by BufferedReader I have to trim() it,I mean to take away all the white space in this line before I do something with the xml code.but I cannot make it right.the "trim()" seems doesn't work.
so I write some small code to test it,
while(in.ready())
String line = in.readLine();
line.trim();
System.out.println();
but,unfortunately,I found the "trim()" mothod in String does't work,it does't do anything!
because on the screen,it print out the excatly same thing as these code
while(in.ready())
String line = in.readLine();
System.out.println();
it did't take away the white sapce.
can you help me?thank you very much!

here is my xml code:
<database>
     <product>
          <id>No.1</id>
          <name>skateboard</name>
          <type>sports</type>
          <price>$58</price>
     </product>
     <product>
          <id>No.2</id>
          <name>bicycle</name>
          <type>sports</type>
          <price>$122</price>
     </product>
</database>
i suppose to have it print out like:
<database>
<product>
<id>No.1</id>
<name>skateboard</name>
<type>sports</type>
<price>$58</price>
</product>
<product>

Trimming a String with Zeros??

Hi Experts,
I have a requirment where i need to trim all the zeros at the beginning of the String.
eg:001500.00 = 1500.00
How can i trim the leading zeros . i dont see any functions in the String class which does thus..
Any api's which does that or any easy way to trim them??
Thanks,

Trimming a string using spaces as a delimitter

I'm trying to retreive email addresses from individual message bodies. I'm using the following code and it is working well :
<cfset addrpos = ListContainsNoCase(getmail.body, "@", " <> ")>
     <cfif addrpos neq 0>
     <cfset email = ListGetAt(getmail.body, addrpos, " <> ")>
     </cfif>
For the most part this is working well, but at times the <> characters are not surrounding the email address in the message bodyand I'm ending up with the email address and a combination of the word before, word after or both. Is there a better way to handle this situation? I tried the following which works when I set the email variable in the example, but does not work when I use the same code in the loop that is getting the original email variable.
<cfset email = "adfga: [email protected] adfw asdfa">
<cfset addrpos1 = ListContainsNoCase(email, "@", " ")>
<cfset EMAIL = ListGetAt(email, addrpos1, " ")>
I looked at the GetToken function but did not think that it would be a better way to go at it. Any other ideas?

Finding email addresses in a bunch of text without using regular expressions? Mad, I say, Mad!

Try using regular expression to match any valid email:
[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}
Allow returnsubexpressions on ReFind to return multiple hits on the message body.
Use cfdump to check how you must access the result array.

String Trimming Issue

Hello, All.
In one of my JSP's, I retrieve search parameters a user entered on a form add it to the session. I then redisplay the data to the when they return to the JSP. What's happening is that when the data is redisplayed in the text fields, it shows as if there are leading spaces or tabs. I do a string trim before I add the data to the session, but this does not seem to work. I have also tried trimming the string after retrieving the data from the session object.
I have also confirmed that the length of the data item placed in the session is the same as the length of the item once I retrieve it from the session. I'm not sure, but I believe it may be inserting tabs into the text fields. Anyone out there know what's going on? Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks much.

I use the following code to retrieve the data from the html form and run it through my cleanParam method, which just trims it:
String name = cleanParam(request.getParameter("compname"));
I then add the code to the session after I've performed processing on the data:
session.setAttribute("name", name);
The html form has the following code to display data:
<input type="text" name="compname" size="30" maxlength="30" value=
<%if(!isEmptyString(getSessionString(session, "name"))){%>"
<%= session.getAttribute("name") %>"<%}else{%>"<%=name%>"<%}%>>
Thanks.

Setting input fields to an empty string BIG PROBLEM

Hi Rob, thanks for your rerply, It makes sense alright, but I am using 2 seperate input fields. I have discovered what is causing the problem .
After the user types into the inputfield and moves on to a different frame, I have set the input field to an empty string and this is what is causing the problem.
I have tried setting the input field to an empty string in a movie script and on individual sprites and the first right answer is not excepted.I have to type in the right answer twice to get get a right response. I am actually using three seperate input fields in total, each with a different name and behavior. Even If I use one input field I still have the same problem. Its driving me crazey. Any Ideas.
Anne

I believe that the FIM Service always does trims on string, so you may be out of luck.
What is your scenario / what are you trying to accomplish by setting a space in an attribute? A space is not an empty string in my definition.

Problems with string comparing

I have a function, getPlayerName() that returns the contents of a text field, but i want the dialog box to check and see if there was anything typed in there, so i have done things like if(this.getPlayerName() != null), if(this.getPlayerName() != "") and if(this.getPlayerName() != " "), and the statement still lets it go by when i dont type anything in. is there something else i'm suppose to do?

When comparing strings (and any other object for that matter) you must use the equals method. In your case you should probably also trim the string for whitespace before comparing:
if(!this.getPlayerName().trim().equals("")) In this case you can also use the length method:
if(this.getPlayerName().trim().length() != 0)

class Get
public static String getString() throws IOException
System.out.println("Input your name:");
InputStreamReader str = new InputStreamReader(System.in);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(str);
String s = br.readLine();
return s;
public static int getInt() throws IOException
System.out.println("Input your data:");
String st = getString();
return Integer.parseInt(st);//this is 208 row
}

It may be that the code in getString() returns a
String that ends with a newline. If that is the
problem, you can use
return (Integer.parseInt(st)).trim();1. getString will never return a String ending in newline. BufferedReader.readLine strips off the newline.
2. Even if you had a newline, String.trim doesn't trim newlines.
3. You would need to trim the String, not the int:
return (Integer.parseInt(st.trim()));As JimDinosaur said, you are passing bad data (the value of "st").
In getInt, add this before trying to parse "st":
System.out.println("###"+st+"###");What does it print?

Trim up to a certain character

hi everyone, i hope someone can help me with this.
i have a string that I need to trim up to a pipe character ("|"). the problem is, the length of the characters before this pipe character varies greatly. How can I trim the string (for example, abcdef346 | rfgt...) and get only abcdef346 as the result?
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try this
Code Snippet
SELECT
LEFT(column_name,(charindex('|',coulmn_name)-1))
as columnname
FROM table_name
Thanks Magnal
Your query helped me too.
Just a word of caution that it will break if there are values without | character at all
so a much safer approach would be this
SELECT LTRIM(RTRIM(LEFT(column_name,charindex('|',coulmn_name + '|')-1))) as columnname
Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs

Parsing an equation within a string

Well my friend and i are making a calculator which has the ability to take a String (the equation) and format it for calculation using the order of operations (PEMDAS).
What we have so far is it reads the equation from a textbox and passes the string to our prcoess void which atm looks like this:
    public static void process(String s){
        textfield_rawLine.setText("");
        s = s.trim().toLowerCase();
        String ans = String.valueOf(partAnswer);
        BasicOps.textfield_Answer.setText(ans);
    }the float variable partAnswer was left over from something else i tried ealier. We want to handle the numbers as floats for more accurate precision. At the moment we can handle simple equations, 4 + 3 etc, but not more complex such as (4 + 3) - (6 * 4) etc. Any ideas how we can accomplish what we need?

the generally accepted way is to convert the infix notation (4 + 3) into postfix notation (4 3 +) and then use a simple stack based processor to perform the math. The infix to postfix transformation, while not brain-dead simple, isn't particularly hard, either. There are probably loads of samples on the net.

There it is possible e.g. to get information, if the string startswith a special substring.
Is there such possibility in LabView? Is there such LabView vi, which offers this functionality? (Some snippet?)
Why I am asking:
I want to create a switch/case-block (case-structure) in labview for this code:
if(string.startswith("XYZ")) step into case1
else if(string.startswith("DEF")) step into case2
BTW:
It would be so nice if anybody could create polymorphic VI with these functions:

Why I am asking:
I want to create a switch/case-block (case-structure) in labview for this code:
This can be done already with the case structure, you can do simple parsing in the case selector, which takes a string as an input.
Type into the case for first case "XYZ....XYZ~"
Type into next case "DEF...DEF~"
Next case is empty string, default.
How does this work:
The "XYZ...XYZ~" matches all strings that start with XYZ and have any ascii value after the ~ is the highest printable 7bit ascii value so this catches all other characters.
Option 2 is parse (there are very good reg expression vi in the string palette) the string and create interger value if a matched then habdle the unique integers in the case structure.
There are so many ways to do it without making a wrapper for the .net string class, I provided a few quick methods
