Hi Franco, thanks for contributing! I think something like firstcol would be a better name. Trim sounds more like removing whitespaces. I also think that you don't have to do the trim(). All strings are trimmed during the map building process (but that can be wrong - I haven't looked through the code...). I wonder if its easily possible to configure the column number that is returned, so something like '${destination|col:2.;}' returns the second entry of destination with the column separator ;. Maybe this could be useful for other purposes? Can you also please add some documentation to your patch? Steve has written the style documentation with asciidoc which is available in SVN. It would be great if you can add some words about this new function! Have fun! WanMil
Hi all, I've written a new filter function called trim.
It returns the first part of a value up to the first occurance of a separator. If the separator is not found it just returns the value.
Example: maybe you have a values like this
destination=München;Landsberg;Augsburg;Ammersee destination=Kaufbeuren;Neugablonz;Mauerstetten;Pforzen
and you want just the first part "München", or "Kaufbeuren" '${destination|trim:;}' will do the trick.
with destination=München/Landsberg/Augsburg/Ammersee destination=Kaufbeuren/Neugablonz/Mauerstetten/Pforzen
use '${destination|trim:/}'
Find attached the new TrimFilter.java a diff for ValueBuilder.java
Ciao, Franco
