Method Detail

Returns true if the specified string is
a single space, tab, carriage return, newline, or formfeed character.

|
Boolean — true if the specified string is

repeat | () | method |
public static function repeat(str:String, n:int):String| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flex 4.1 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Returns a string consisting of a specified string concatenated with itself a specified number of times.

| |
n:int — The repeat count.
|
String — The repeated string.
|
restrict | () | method |
public static function restrict(str:String, restrict:String):String| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flex 4.1 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 10, AIR 1.5 |
Removes "unallowed" characters from a string.
A "restriction string" such as "A-Z0-9"
is used to specify which characters are allowed.
This method uses the same logic as the restrict
property of TextField.
Parameters
str:String — The input string.
| |
restrict:String — The restriction string.
|
String — The input string, minus any characters
that are not allowed by the restriction string.
|
substitute | () | method |
public static function substitute(str:String, ... rest):String| Language Version: | ActionScript 3.0 |
| Product Version: | Flex 3 |
| Runtime Versions: | Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1 |
Substitutes "{n}" tokens within the specified string with the respective arguments passed in.
Parameters
str:String — The string to make substitutions in.
This string can contain special tokens of the form
{n}, where n is a zero based index,
that will be replaced with the additional parameters
found at that index if specified.
| |
... rest — Additional parameters that can be substituted
in the str parameter at each {n}
location, where n is an integer (zero based)
index value into the array of values specified.
If the first parameter is an array this array will be used as
a parameter list.
This allows reuse of this routine in other methods that want to
use the ... rest signature.
For example
public function myTracer(str:String, ... rest):void
{
label.text += StringUtil.substitute(str, rest) + "\n";
}
|
String — New string with all of the {n} tokens
replaced with the respective arguments specified.
