[jira] Created: (LANG-338) truncateNicely method which avoids
truncating in the middle of a word
truncateNicely method which avoids truncating in the middle of a word
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: LANG-338
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-338
Project: Commons Lang
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: matt humphreys
Priority: Trivial
as provided by jakarta string taglib. It would be good if this was part of commons as it doesn't make sense to use a taglib jar for non-web projects.
The taglib javadoc says:
"...It will search for the first space after the lower limit and truncate the string there. It will also append any string passed as a parameter to the end of the string. The hard limit can be specified to forcibily truncate a string (in the case of an extremely long word or such)..."

[jira] Updated: (LANG-338) truncateNicely method which avoids
truncating in the middle of a word
Posted by "Henri Yandell (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-338?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Henri Yandell updated LANG-338:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 3.0
A few bugs would need fixing first:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35569 (contains 2 other bugs)
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36788
and a lot more unit testing. It is a popular tag in the String taglib though, so would ostensibly be a popular function for Lang.
