public class StringUtils

extends java.lang.Object

Utility class containing many of the common string related routines needed by a classloader. Results from these methods are often maintained in a SessionCache to avoid recomputing them.

The algorithms are broken out in this utility (as opposed to being included in the cache) so as to allow them to be called when no cache exists.
