Method Detail

fileSizeAsStr

public static String fileSizeAsStr(long size)

Formats a byte size (for example the size of a file) into an easy-to-read string. It is somewhat similar to the -h option which exist on many Unix/Linux commands. Readability is favored over precision.

Note that the method uses the abbreviations "KB", "MB" and "GB" to denote 1024 bytes, 1024² bytes and 1024³ bytes. Strictly speaking this incorrect but this is what most operating systems do as well.

Rules are as follows:
If the size is <1 KB : Will be shown as-is. Example returned string: "361 bytes"
If the size is >= 1 KB and < 1 MB : Will be shown as KB value with no decimals. Example returned string: "76 KB"
If the size is >= 1 MB and < 1 GB : Will be shown as MB value with 1 decimal. Example returned string: "323.4 MB"
If the size is >= 1 GB : Will be shown as GB value with 2 decimal. Example returned string: "1.42 GB"

Except for input values above 1 TB the returned string will never be more than 9 bytes in length.

Parameters:

size - byte size

Returns:

formatted string

stripHtml

public static String stripHtml(String inp)

Strips a string from HTML and replaces <br>,<p>, <h1>, <h2> and <h3> with new line. This produces a string which is readable as plain text.

Note: The method is simple and crude. It will not work on malformed HTML or if there are un-escaped < or > outside of the HTML tags. However, for all but the most complex use cases, the method will probably work just fine.

Parameters:

inp -

Returns:
