    • Method Detail

      • subSequence

        public static java.lang.CharSequence subSequence​(java.lang.CharSequence cs,
                                                         int start)

        Returns a new CharSequence that is a subsequence of this sequence starting with the char value at the specified index.

        This provides the CharSequence equivalent to String.substring(int). The length (in char) of the returned sequence is length() - start, so if start == end then an empty sequence is returned.

        Parameters:
        cs - the specified subsequence, null returns null
        start - the start index, inclusive, valid
        Returns:
        a new subsequence, may be null
        Throws:
        java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - if start is negative or if start is greater than length()
      • toCharArray

        public static char[] toCharArray​(java.lang.CharSequence source)
        Converts the given CharSequence to a char[].
        Parameters:
        source - the CharSequence to be processed.
        Returns:
        the resulting char array, never null.
