Method Detail

parseBooleanValues

public static Boolean[] parseBooleanValues(String values,
                                           String name)
                                    throws ParameterFormatException

Parses a space delimited list of strings into an array of boolean values. The individual elements must be "true" or "false"

Parameters:

values - the values to tokenize

name - the name of the parameter

Returns:

the tokenized list as an array of Booleans

Throws:

ParameterFormatException - if there is an error in the tokenization or conversion.

parseFloatValues

public static Float[] parseFloatValues(String values,
                                       String name)
                                throws ParameterFormatException

Parses a space delimited list of strings into an array of Float values. The strings must be valid floats.

Parameters:

values - the values to tokenize

name - the name of the parameter

Returns:

the tokenized list as an array of Floats

Throws:

ParameterFormatException - if there is an error in the tokenization or conversion.

parseLongValues

public static Long[] parseLongValues(String values,
                                     String name)
                              throws ParameterFormatException

Parses a space delimited list of strings into an array of Long values. The strings must be valid longs.

Parameters:

values - the values to tokenize

name - the name of the parameter

Returns:

the tokenized list as an array of Longs

Throws:

ParameterFormatException - if there is an error in the tokenization or conversion.

parseDoubleValues

public static Double[] parseDoubleValues(String values,
                                         String name)
                                  throws ParameterFormatException

Parses a space delimited list of strings into an array of Double values. The strings must be valid doubles.

Parameters:

values - the values to tokenize

name - the name of the parameter

Returns:

the tokenized list as an array of Doubles

Throws:

ParameterFormatException - if there is an error in the tokenization or conversion.

parseByteValues

public static Byte[] parseByteValues(String values,
                                     String name)
                              throws ParameterFormatException

Parses a space delimited list of strings into an array of Byte values. The strings must be valid bytes.
