Gregor B. Rosenauer commented on LANG-405:
------------------------------------------
actually
public String truncateMiddle(String str, int length);
would suffice since the middle part is shortened to an ellipsis "...", or was
the "String middle" ment as a placeholder?
Anyway, 'nough talking, I see your hint clearly:) Hope to have some time by the
end of the week to look into this.
> StringUtils.truncate() to cut out middle part of a String
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LANG-405
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-405
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 2.2
> Reporter: Gregor B. Rosenauer
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 3.0
>
>
> It would be handy to have a String method that cuts out the middle part of a
> String such that as much as possible is kept from the start and end of the
> String, but the middle part is replaced by an ellipsis "..."
> BeOS had a function like this, but it's poorly documented, missing examples:
> http://www.beunited.org/bebook/The%20Support%20Kit/String.html#Truncate()
> e.g.:
> A very long text with unimportant stuff in the middle but interesting start
> and end to see if the text is complete.
> becomes:
> A very long text...to see if the text is complete.
