Method Detail

stringToMap

public static Map<String,String> stringToMap(String s)

Parses a string of key/value pairs into a map.

The key/value pairs are separated by a comma (,). The key and value are separated by an equals (=).

If a key contains a \ or an = it must be escaped by a preceding \. Example: key\==value,\\key=value.

If a value contains a \ or a , it must be escaped by a preceding \. Example: key=part1\,part2,key2=value\\other.

If the value for a key is empty there is no trailing = after a key the will be null.

Parameters:

s - the string to parse

Returns:

a map of the key value pairs or an empty map if the string is null or empty

stringToEnumMap

public static <E extends Enum<E>> EnumMap<E,String> stringToEnumMap(Class<E> enumType,
                                                                    String s)

Parses a string of key/value pairs into an enum map.

The key/value pairs are separated by a comma (,). The key and value are separated by an equals (=). The key must be a valid enum value. For convenience the case of each character will be converted to uppercase and any dashes (-) will be converted to underscores (_).

If a value contains a \ or a , it must be escaped by a preceding \. Example: key=part1\,part2,key2=value\\other.

If the value for a key is empty there is no trailing = after a key the value will be null.

Parameters:

enumType - the enum type

s - the string to parse

Returns:

a map of the key value pairs or an empty map if the string is null or empty

stringToEnumMap

public static <E extends Enum<E>> EnumMap<E,String> stringToEnumMap(Class<E> enumType,
                                                                    String s,
                                                                    boolean convertKeyCase)

Parses a string of key/value pairs into an enum map.

The key/value pairs are separated by a comma (,). The key and value are separated by an equals (=). The key must be a valid enum value. For convenience any dashes (-) will be converted to underscores (_). If convertKeyCase is set to true the case will also be converted to uppercase for each key character.

If a value contains a \ or a , it must be escaped by a preceding \. Example: key=part1\,part2,key2=value\\other.

If the value for a key is empty there is no trailing = after a key the value will be null.

Parameters:

enumType - the enum type

s - the string to parse

convertKeyCase - true if the each character from the key should be converted to uppercase, otherwise false to keep the case as is

Returns:

a map of the key value pairs or an empty map if the string is null or empty

mapToString

public static <K> String mapToString(Map<K,String> map)

Converts a map into a string that can be parsed by stringToMap(String). Note that if this is an EnumMap the mapToString(EnumMap) will be used and the key will be the enum name.

Type Parameters:

K - the type of the key

Parameters:

map - the map to convert to a string

Returns:

a string value for that map that can be used for configuration properties

See Also:

escapeKey(StringBuilder, String), escapeValue(StringBuilder, String)

mapToString

public static <K extends Enum<K>> String mapToString(EnumMap<K,String> map)

Converts a map into a string that can be parsed by stringToMap(String). The kwy will be the enum name.

Type Parameters:

K - the type of the key

Parameters:

map - the map to convert to a string

Returns:

a string value for that map that can be used for configuration properties

See Also:

escapeKey(StringBuilder, String), escapeValue(StringBuilder, String)

escapeKey

public static void escapeKey(StringBuilder sb,
                             String key)

Escapes a maps key value for serialization to a string. If the key contains a \ or an = it will be escaped by a preceding \. Example: key\= or \\key.

Parameters:

sb - the string builder to append the escaped key to

key - the key

escapeValue

public static void escapeValue(StringBuilder sb,
                               String value)

Escapes a maps value for serialization to a string. If a value contains a \ or a , it will be escaped by a preceding \. Example: part1\,part2 or value\\other.

Parameters:

sb - the string builder to append the escaped value to

value - the value
