static String format(String format, Object… args) Returns a formatted string using the specified format string and arguments. Metin ifademizin içerisine bir başka metin ifadesini eklemek için ‘%s’ karakteri yazıp sonrasında ise bu ifadeyi istenilen değer ile değiştirmeyi sağlamaktadır. Örnek: [code language=”java”] String str01 = "yaz%smc%sy.net"; String result = String.format(str01, "ili", "it"); System.out.println(result); [/code] Sonuç çıktımız aşağıdaki gibi olacaktır. [code language=”java”] yazilimcity.net [/code] byte[] getBytes() Encodes this String into a sequence of bytes using the platform’s default charset, storing the result into a new byte array. byte[] getBytes(Charset charset) Encodes this String into a sequence of bytes using the given charset, storing the result into a new byte array. void getBytes(int srcBegin, int srcEnd, byte[] dst, int dstBegin) Deprecated. This method does not properly convert characters into bytes. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to do this is via the getBytes() method, which uses the platform’s default charset. byte[] getBytes(String charsetName) Encodes this String into a sequence of bytes using the named charset, storing the result into a new byte array. void getChars(int srcBegin, int srcEnd, char[] dst, int dstBegin) Copies characters from this string into the destination character array. int hashCode() Returns a hash code for this string. int indexOf(int ch) Returns the index within this string of the first occurrence of the specified character. int indexOf(int ch, int fromIndex) Returns the index within this string of the first occurrence of the specified character, starting the search at the specified index. int indexOf(String str) Returns the index within this string of the first occurrence of the specified substring. int indexOf(String str, int fromIndex) Returns the index within this string of the first occurrence of the specified substring, starting at the specified index. String intern() Returns a canonical representation for the string object. boolean isEmpty() Returns true if, and only if, length() is 0. int lastIndexOf(int ch) Returns the index within this string of the last occurrence of the specified character. int lastIndexOf(int ch, int fromIndex) Returns the index within this string of the last occurrence of the specified character, searching backward starting at the specified index. int lastIndexOf(String str) Returns the index within this string of the last occurrence of the specified substring. int lastIndexOf(String str, int fromIndex) Returns the index within this string of the last occurrence of the specified substring, searching backward starting at the specified index. int length() Returns the length of this string. boolean matches(String regex) Tells whether or not this string matches the given regular expression. int offsetByCodePoints(int index, int codePointOffset) Returns the index within this String that is offset from the given index by codePointOffset code points. boolean regionMatches(boolean ignoreCase, int toffset, String other, int ooffset, int len) Tests if two string regions are equal. boolean regionMatches(int toffset, String other, int ooffset, int len) Tests if two string regions are equal. String replace(char oldChar, char newChar) Returns a new string resulting from replacing all occurrences of oldChar in this string with newChar. String replace(CharSequence target, CharSequence replacement) Replaces each substring of this string that matches the literal target sequence with the specified literal replacement sequence. String replaceAll(String regex, String replacement) Replaces each substring of this string that matches the given regular expression with the given replacement. String replaceFirst(String regex, String replacement) Replaces the first substring of this string that matches the given regular expression with the given replacement. String[] split(String regex) Splits this string around matches of the given regular expression. String[] split(String regex, int limit) Splits this string around matches of the given regular expression. boolean startsWith(String prefix) Tests if this string starts with the specified prefix. boolean startsWith(String prefix, int toffset) Tests if the substring of this string beginning at the specified index starts with the specified prefix. CharSequence subSequence(int beginIndex, int endIndex) Returns a new character sequence that is a subsequence of this sequence. String substring(int beginIndex) Returns a new string that is a substring of this string. String substring(int beginIndex, int endIndex) Returns a new string that is a substring of this string. char[] toCharArray() Converts this string to a new character array. String toLowerCase() Converts all of the characters in this String to lower case using the rules of the default locale. String toLowerCase(Locale locale) Converts all of the characters in this String to lower case using the rules of the given Locale. String toString() This object (which is already a string!) is itself returned. String toUpperCase() Converts all of the characters in this String to upper case using the rules of the default locale. Varsayılan yerel kurallar ile karakter dizisindeki bütün karakterleri büyük harflere çevirir. String toUpperCase(Locale locale) Converts all of the characters in this String to upper case using the rules of the given Locale. Verilen Locale değeri kuralları ile karakter dizisindeki bütün karakterleri büyük harflere çevirir. Local değerinin alabileceği değerler: “tr-TR”, “en_US”. “tr-TR” parametresi ile Türkçe de kullanılan “i” harfi “İ” harfine, Türkçe de kullanılan “ı” harfi ise “I” harfine dönüşür. String trim() Returns a copy of the string, with leading and trailing whitespace omitted. static String valueOf(boolean b) Returns the string representation of the boolean argument. static String valueOf(char c) Returns the string representation of the char argument. static String valueOf(char[] data) Returns the string representation of the char array argument. static String valueOf(char[] data, int offset, int count) Returns the string representation of a specific subarray of the char array argument. static String valueOf(double d) Returns the string representation of the double argument. static String valueOf(float f) Returns the string representation of the float argument. static String valueOf(int i) Returns the string representation of the int argument. static String valueOf(long l) Returns the string representation of the long argument. static String valueOf(Object obj) Returns the string representation of the Object argument.
