I am on JDK 1.4 and I would like to know if there is a substitute for contains method found in String class in JDK 1.5. TIA.

You could try the indexOf("abc") method. If you get a number it is in there; if it is not found you get -1. But what is wrong with the contains() method?

Nothing is wrong with contains. The deployment is targeted for WAS 6.0 which supports J2EE 1.4. String contains method is available only in Java 5.
Your code works. I did see that contains has the same implementation but just overlooked to pass the string to be tested. Thanks.
