Method Summary | |
public static String | escapeHtml(String str) Escapes the characters in a String using HTML entities.
For example:
"bread" & "butter"
becomes:
"bread" & "butter" .
Supports all known HTML 4.0 entities, including funky accents.
Note that the commonly used apostrophe escape character (')
is not a legal entity and so is not supported). | public static void | escapeHtml(Writer writer, String string) Escapes the characters in a String using HTML entities and writes
them to a Writer .
For example:
"bread" & "butter"
becomes:
"bread" & "butter" .
Supports all known HTML 4.0 entities, including funky accents.
Note that the commonly used apostrophe escape character (')
is not a legal entity and so is not supported). | public static String | escapeJava(String str) | public static void | escapeJava(Writer out, String str) | public static String | escapeJavaScript(String str) Escapes the characters in a String using JavaScript String rules.
Escapes any values it finds into their JavaScript String form. | public static void | escapeJavaScript(Writer out, String str) | public static String | escapeSql(String str) Escapes the characters in a String to be suitable to pass to
an SQL query.
For example,
statement.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM MOVIES WHERE TITLE='" +
StringEscapeUtils.escapeSql("McHale's Navy") +
"'");
At present, this method only turns single-quotes into doubled single-quotes
("McHale's Navy" => "McHale''s Navy" ). | public static void | escapeXml(Writer writer, String str) Escapes the characters in a String using XML entities.
For example: "bread" & "butter" =>
"bread" & "butter".
Supports only the five basic XML entities (gt, lt, quot, amp, apos).
Does not support DTDs or external entities.
Note that unicode characters greater than 0x7f are currently escaped to
their numerical \\u equivalent. | public static String | escapeXml(String str) Escapes the characters in a String using XML entities.
For example: "bread" & "butter" =>
"bread" & "butter".
Supports only the five basic XML entities (gt, lt, quot, amp, apos).
Does not support DTDs or external entities.
Note that unicode characters greater than 0x7f are currently escaped to
their numerical \\u equivalent. | public static String | unescapeHtml(String str) Unescapes a string containing entity escapes to a string
containing the actual Unicode characters corresponding to the
escapes. | public static void | unescapeHtml(Writer writer, String string) Unescapes a string containing entity escapes to a string
containing the actual Unicode characters corresponding to the
escapes. | public static String | unescapeJava(String str) Unescapes any Java literals found in the String . | public static void | unescapeJava(Writer out, String str) | public static String | unescapeJavaScript(String str) | public static void | unescapeJavaScript(Writer out, String str) | public static void | unescapeXml(Writer writer, String str) Unescapes a string containing XML entity escapes to a string
containing the actual Unicode characters corresponding to the
escapes.
Supports only the five basic XML entities (gt, lt, quot, amp, apos).
Does not support DTDs or external entities.
Note that numerical \\u unicode codes are unescaped to their respective
unicode characters. | public static String | unescapeXml(String str) Unescapes a string containing XML entity escapes to a string
containing the actual Unicode characters corresponding to the
escapes.
Supports only the five basic XML entities (gt, lt, quot, amp, apos).
Does not support DTDs or external entities.
Note that numerical \\u unicode codes are unescaped to their respective
unicode characters. |
StringEscapeUtils | public StringEscapeUtils()(Code) | | StringEscapeUtils instances should NOT be constructed in
standard programming.
Instead, the class should be used as:
StringEscapeUtils.escapeJava("foo");
This constructor is public to permit tools that require a JavaBean
instance to operate.
|
escapeJava | public static String escapeJava(String str)(Code) | | Escapes the characters in a String using Java String rules.
Deals correctly with quotes and control-chars (tab, backslash, cr, ff, etc.)
So a tab becomes the characters '\\' and
't' .
The only difference between Java strings and JavaScript strings
is that in JavaScript, a single quote must be escaped.
Example:
input string: He didn't say, "Stop!"
output string: He didn't say, \"Stop!\"
Parameters: str - String to escape values in, may be null String with escaped values, null if null string input |
escapeJavaScript | public static String escapeJavaScript(String str)(Code) | | Escapes the characters in a String using JavaScript String rules.
Escapes any values it finds into their JavaScript String form.
Deals correctly with quotes and control-chars (tab, backslash, cr, ff, etc.)
So a tab becomes the characters '\\' and
't' .
The only difference between Java strings and JavaScript strings
is that in JavaScript, a single quote must be escaped.
Example:
input string: He didn't say, "Stop!"
output string: He didn\'t say, \"Stop!\"
Parameters: str - String to escape values in, may be null String with escaped values, null if null string input |
escapeSql | public static String escapeSql(String str)(Code) | | Escapes the characters in a String to be suitable to pass to
an SQL query.
For example,
statement.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM MOVIES WHERE TITLE='" +
StringEscapeUtils.escapeSql("McHale's Navy") +
"'");
At present, this method only turns single-quotes into doubled single-quotes
("McHale's Navy" => "McHale''s Navy" ). It does not
handle the cases of percent (%) or underscore (_) for use in LIKE clauses.

Parameters: str - the string to escape, may be null a new String, escaped for SQL, null if null string input |
escapeXml | public static void escapeXml(Writer writer, String str) throws IOException(Code) | | Escapes the characters in a String using XML entities.
For example: "bread" & "butter" =>
"bread" & "butter".

their numerical \\u equivalent. This may change in future releases.
Parameters: writer - the writer receiving the unescaped string, not null Parameters: str - the String to escape, may be null throws: IllegalArgumentException - if the writer is null throws: IOException - if there is a problem writing See Also: StringEscapeUtils.unescapeXml(java.lang.String) |
