                             String list,
                             boolean include)

unqualify

public static String unqualify(String qualifiedName)

qualifier

public static String qualifier(String qualifiedName)

collapse

public static String collapse(String name)

Collapses a name. Mainly intended for use with classnames, where an example might serve best to explain. Imagine you have a class named 'org.hibernate.util.StringHelper'; calling collapse on that classname will result in 'o.h.u.StringHelper'.

Parameters:

name - The name to collapse.

Returns:

The collapsed name.

collapseQualifier

public static String collapseQualifier(String qualifier,
                                       boolean includeDots)

Given a qualifier, collapse it.

Parameters:

qualifier - The qualifier to collapse.

includeDots - Should we include the dots in the collapsed form?

Returns:

The collapsed form.

partiallyUnqualify

public static String partiallyUnqualify(String name,
                                        String qualifierBase)

Partially unqualifies a qualified name. For example, with a base of 'org.hibernate' the name 'org.hibernate.util.StringHelper' would become 'util.StringHelper'.

Parameters:

name - The (potentially) qualified name.

qualifierBase - The qualifier base.

Returns:

The name itself, or the partially unqualified form if it begins with the qualifier base.

collapseQualifierBase

public static String collapseQualifierBase(String name,
                                           String qualifierBase)

Cross between collapse(java.lang.String) and partiallyUnqualify(java.lang.String, java.lang.String). Functions much like collapse(java.lang.String) except that only the qualifierBase is collapsed. For example, with a base of 'org.hibernate' the name 'org.hibernate.util.StringHelper' would become 'o.h.util.StringHelper'.

Parameters:

name - The (potentially) qualified name.

qualifierBase - The qualifier base.

Returns:

The name itself if it does not begin with the qualifierBase, or the properly collapsed form otherwise.

suffix

public static String[] suffix(String[] columns,
                              String suffix)

root

public static String root(String qualifiedName)

unroot

public static String unroot(String qualifiedName)

booleanValue

public static boolean booleanValue(String tfString)

toString

public static String toString(Object[] array)

multiply

public static String[] multiply(String string,
                                Iterator placeholders,
                                Iterator replacements)

countUnquoted

public static int countUnquoted(String string,
                                char character)

public static int firstIndexOfChar(String sqlString,
                                   String string,
                                   int startindex)

                              int length)

generateAlias

public static String generateAlias(String description,
                                   int unique)

Generate a nice alias for the given class name or collection role name and unique integer. Subclasses of Loader do not have to use aliases of this form.

Parameters:

description - The base name (usually an entity-name or collection-role)

unique - A uniquing value

Returns:

an alias of the form foo1_
