Method | Result |
canParse(string) | Returns a boolean true if the argument can be successfully parsed. |
clone(string) | Returns a reference to the specified string. |
find(substring) | Returns an integer indicating the index position of the argument. EPL string indices start at 0. |
findFrom(substring, fromIndex) | Behaves like find() but starts searching at fromIndex. |
intern() | Marks the string as interned. Subsequent incoming events that contain a string that is identical to an interned string use the same string object. |
join(sequence<string> s ) | Concatenates the strings in s using the operand as a separator. |
length() | Returns an integer indicating the length of the string. |
ltrim() | Returns a string where all white space characters at the beginning have been removed. |
parse(string) | Returns the string value represented by the string argument without enclosing that value in quotation marks. You can call this method on the string type or on an instance of a string type. |
replaceAll(string1, string2) | Makes a copy of the operand string, replaces instances of string1 with instances of string2 and returns the revised string. |
rtrim() | Returns a string where all whitespace characters at the end have been removed. |
split(string) | Returns a sequence of strings that represent the argument split at occurrences of the operand string. |
substring(integer, integer) | Returns the substring indicated by the integer arguments. |
toBoolean() | Returns a boolean true if the string is "true". |
toDecimal() | Returns a decimal representation of the string. |
toFloat() | Returns a float representation of the string. |
toInteger() | Returns an integer representation of the string. |
tokenize(string) | Categorizes each character in the argument as either part of a delimiter (the character appears in the operand string) or part of a token (any other character), divides the argument into tokens separated by delimiters, and returns the tokens as a sequence of strings. |
toLower() | Returns an all-lowercase string representation. |
toString() | Returns the contents of the string value, exactly the same as using the string directly. |
toUpper() | Returns an all-uppercase string representation |
