Constructor Detail

NSString

public NSString(byte[] bytes,
                String encoding)
         throws UnsupportedEncodingException

Creates an NSString from its binary representation.

Parameters:

bytes - The binary representation.

encoding - The encoding of the binary representation, the name of a supported charset.

Throws:

UnsupportedEncodingException - When the given encoding is not supported by the JRE.

String.String(byte[], String)

NSString

public NSString(byte[] bytes,
                int startIndex,
                int endIndex,
                String encoding)
         throws UnsupportedEncodingException

Creates an NSString from its binary representation.

Parameters:

bytes - The binary representation.

startIndex - int with the index where to start (offset)

endIndex - int with the index where to stop reading (offset + string length)

encoding - The encoding of the binary representation, the name of a supported charset.

Throws:

UnsupportedEncodingException - When the given encoding is not supported by the JRE.

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

toString

public String toString()

The textual representation of this NSString.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

toBinary

public void toBinary(BinaryPropertyListWriter out)
              throws IOException

Description copied from class: NSObject

Generates the binary representation of the object.

Parameters:

out - The output stream to serialize the object to.

Throws:

IOException - When an IO error occurs while writing to the stream or the object structure contains data that cannot be saved.

Specified by:

toASCII in class NSObject

Parameters:

ascii - The StringBuilder onto which the ASCII representation is appended.

level - The indentation level of the object.

toASCIIGnuStep

protected void toASCIIGnuStep(StringBuilder ascii,
                              int level)

Description copied from class: NSObject

Generates the ASCII representation of this object in the GnuStep format. The generated ASCII representation does not end with a newline.

Specified by:

toASCIIGnuStep in class NSObject

Parameters:

ascii - The StringBuilder onto which the ASCII representation is appended.

level - The indentation level of the object.

compareTo

public int compareTo(Object o)

Specified by:
