Class StringUtils

java.lang.Object
com.google.api.client.util.StringUtils
public class StringUtils extends Object
Utilities for strings.

Some of these methods are a proxy for version 1.6 (or newer) of the Apache Commons Codec StringUtils implementation. This is needed in order to support platforms like Android which already include an older version of the Apache Commons Codec (Android includes version 1.3). To avoid a dependency library conflict, this library includes a reduced private copy of version 1.6 (or newer) of the Apache Commons Codec (using a tool like jarjar).

Since:
1.8
