Constructor Detail

### JspUtil

    public JspUtil()

Method Detail

### removeQuotes

    public static char[] removeQuotes(char[] chars)

### escapeQuotes

    public static char[] escapeQuotes(char[] chars)

### isExpression

    public static boolean isExpression(java.lang.String token,
                                       boolean isXml)

  Checks if the token is a runtime expression. In standard JSP syntax, a runtime expression starts with '<%' and ends with '%>'. When the JSP document is in XML syntax, a runtime expression starts with '%=' and ends with '%'.

  Parameters:
    `token` - The token to be checked return whether the token is a runtime expression or not.

### getExpr

    public static java.lang.String getExpr(java.lang.String expression,
                                           boolean isXml)

  Returns:
    the "expression" part of a runtime expression, taking the delimiters out.

### getExprInXml

    public static java.lang.String getExprInXml(java.lang.String expression)

  Takes a potential expression and converts it into XML form

### parseXMLDoc

    public static org.w3c.dom.Document parseXMLDoc(java.lang.String uri,
                                                   java.io.InputStream in)
                                            throws JasperException

  Deprecated. Use ParserUtils.parseXMLDocument() instead

  Parses the XML document contained in the InputStream.

    `JasperException`

### parseXMLDocJaxp

    public static org.w3c.dom.Document parseXMLDocJaxp(java.lang.String uri,
                                                       java.io.InputStream in)
                                                throws JasperException

  Deprecated. Use ParserUtils.parseXMLDocument() instead

  Parses the XML document contained in the InputStream. This XML document is either web.xml or a tld. [The TLD has to be cached internally (see MyEntityResolver)]

    `JasperException`

### checkAttributes

    public static void checkAttributes(java.lang.String typeOfTag,
                                       org.xml.sax.Attributes attrs,
                                       JspUtil.ValidAttribute[] validAttributes,
                                       Mark start)
                                throws JasperException

    `JasperException`

### escapeQueryString

    public static java.lang.String escapeQueryString(java.lang.String unescString)

### escapeXml

    public static java.lang.String escapeXml(java.lang.String s)

  Escape the 5 entities defined by XML.

### attrsToHashtable

    public static java.util.Hashtable attrsToHashtable(org.xml.sax.Attributes attrs)

### getElementChildTextData

    public static java.lang.String getElementChildTextData(org.w3c.dom.Element e)

  Get the data for the first child associated with the Element provided as argument. It is assumed that this first child is of type Text.

  Parameters:
    `e` - the DOM Element to read from
  Returns:
    the data associated with the first child of the DOM element.

### booleanValue

    public static boolean booleanValue(java.lang.String s)

  Convert a String value to 'boolean'. Besides the standard conversions done by Boolean.valueOf(s).booleanValue(), the value "yes" (ignore case) is also converted to 'true'. If 's' is null, then 'false' is returned.
