In the xbase languages there are a number of
string functions that I used all the time - padl (pad left) - padr (pad right) and alltrim() - additionally - padl and padr would take two or three parameters - the string to be padded, the length of the new string and optionally the pad character (default to spaces)
do these constructs exist in
java? example...
local strTest = " abc "
strTest = padl(alltrim(strTest), 4)
strTest == " abc"
I could create my own class to do this but don't want to reinvent the wheel - any help would be appreciated
Thank you, Tom Bigbee
