Class GStringImpl

All Implemented Interfaces:
Buildable, GroovyObject, Writable, Serializable, CharSequence, Comparable

public class GStringImpl extends GString
Default implementation of a GString used by the compiler. A GString consists of a list of values and strings which can be combined to create a new String.

  • Constructor Details

    • GStringImpl

      public GStringImpl(Object[] values, String[] strings)
      Create a new GString with values and strings.

      Each value is prefixed by a string, after the last value an additional String might be used, hence the following constraint is expected to hold: strings.length == values.length || strings.length == values.length + 1 .

      NOTE: The lengths are not checked but using arrays with lengths which violate the above constraint could result in unpredictable behaviour.

      Parameters:
      values - the value parts
      strings - the string parts
    • GStringImpl

      protected GStringImpl(Object[] values, String[] strings, boolean cacheable, String cachedStringLiteral, boolean frozen)
      Create a new GString with values and strings.

      Each value is prefixed by a string, after the last value an additional String might be used, hence the following constraint is expected to hold: strings.length == values.length || strings.length == values.length + 1 .

      NOTE: The lengths are not checked but using arrays with lengths which violate the above constraint could result in unpredictable behaviour.

      Parameters:
      values - the value parts
      strings - the string parts
      frozen - creates a GStringImpl which is not subject to mutation and hence more amenable to caching
  • Method Details

    • plus

      public GString plus(GString that)
      Overrides:
      plus in class GString
    • writeTo

      public Writer writeTo(Writer out) throws IOException
      Description copied from interface: Writable
      Writes this object to the given writer.

      This is used to defer content creation until the point when it is streamed to the output destination. Oftentimes, content will be defined but not necessarily created (as it may be the case with a Closure definition.) In that case, the output is then 'deferred' to the point when it is serialized to the writer. This class may be used whenever an object should be responsible for creating its own textual representation, but creating the entire output as a single String would be inefficient (such as outputting a multi-gigabyte XML document.)

      Specified by:
      writeTo in interface Writable
      Overrides:
      writeTo in class GString
      Parameters:
      out - the Writer to which this Writable should output its data.
      Returns:
      the Writer that was passed
      Throws:
      IOException - if an error occurred while outputting data to the writer
    • build

      public void build(GroovyObject builder)
      Specified by:
      build in interface Buildable
      Overrides:
      build in class GString
    • calcInitialCapacity

      protected int calcInitialCapacity()
      Overrides:
      calcInitialCapacity in class GString
    • freeze

      public GString freeze()
      Returns:
      returns an equivalent optimised but less mutable version of this GString
    • getStrings

      public String[] getStrings()
      Get the strings of this GString.

      This method returns the same array as used in the constructor. Changing the values will result in changes of the GString. It is generally not recommended to do so.

      Specified by:
      getStrings in class GString
    • getValues

      public Object[] getValues()
      Overrides:
      getValues in class GString
    • trim

      public String trim()
    • isEmpty

      public boolean isEmpty()
    • lines

      public Stream<String> lines()
      Returns a stream of lines extracted from this string, separated by line terminators.

      A line terminator is one of the following: a line feed character "\n" (U+000A), a carriage return character "\r" (U+000D), or a carriage return followed immediately by a line feed "\r\n" (U+000D U+000A).

      A line is either a sequence of zero or more characters followed by a line terminator, or it is a sequence of one or more characters followed by the end of the string. A line does not include the line terminator.

      The stream returned by this method contains the lines from this string in the order in which they occur.

      Returns:
      the stream of lines extracted from this string

    • isBlank

      public boolean isBlank()
      Returns true if the string is empty or contains only white space codepoints, otherwise false.
      Returns:
      true if the string is empty or contains only white space codepoints, otherwise false
      Since:
      5.0.0

    • repeat

      public String repeat(int count)
      Returns a string whose value is the concatenation of this string repeated count times.

      If this string is empty or count is zero then the empty string is returned.

      Parameters:
      count - number of times to repeat
      Returns:
      A string composed of this string repeated count times or the empty string if this string is empty or count is zero
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the count is negative.
      Since:
      5.0.0
    • stripLeading

      public String stripLeading()
      Returns a string whose value is this string, with all leading white space removed.

      If this String object represents an empty string, or if all code points in this string are white space, then an empty string is returned.

      Otherwise, returns a substring of this string beginning with the first code point that is not a white space up to and including the last code point of this string.

      This method may be used to trim white space from the beginning of a string.

      Returns:
      a string whose value is this string, with all leading white space removed

    • stripTrailing

      public String stripTrailing()
      Returns a string whose value is this string, with all trailing white space removed.

      If this String object represents an empty string, or if all characters in this string are white space, then an empty string is returned.

      Otherwise, returns a substring of this string beginning with the first code point of this string up to and including the last code point that is not a white space.

      This method may be used to trim white space from the end of a string.

      Returns:
      a string whose value is this string, with all trailing white space removed

      5.0.0

    • strip

      public String strip()

      If this String object represents an empty string, or if all code points in this string are white space, then an empty string is returned.

      Otherwise, returns a substring of this string beginning with the first code point that is not a white space up to and including the last code point that is not a white space.

      This method may be used to strip white space from the beginning and end of a string.

      Returns:
      a string whose value is this string, with all leading and trailing white space removed
