Where is char-supporting String funcions!
-
Apparently guys wrote the following masterpiece barely didn't find a
function working with char type argument and then decided to write on
their own:
public int Find(String string,char x, int startPos) {
int i;
if (string.length() == 0)
return -1;
if (startPos >= string.length())
return -1;
byte[] byteArray = string.getBytes();
for (i = startPos; i < byteArray.length; i++)
if (byteArray[i] == x)
break;
if (i == byteArray.length)
return -1;
else
return i;
}

Do you mean due to unicode issues? If yes, I agree completely. If no, what do you mean?

Re: Where is char-supporting String functions!
yeah, I meant the Unicode issue. It is Java:-) you wouldn't
believe but this is a part of a public API which they give to customers
(not source at least) but ALL the code is like this. Most of classes'
members are public and most of the functions as well. But they invented
a new method of incapsulation control. Some of the public functions
have in their doc clause a phrase "for internal use only!". WTF!!!
Souldn't there be a way to revoke a programmer's license???:-)

I'd blame his manager who allowed him to do this job. Or his manager's manager who allowed his manager to do it:-) Really WTF

You're sure they invented it? I can't be ***** to look it up now, but
aren't there public methods in the Java API itself labeled like this?
Could've been Qt though, I'm not sure...
-
Do you have an example of such code in Java? Gimme a link pls.

Java, of course. Should have known that. Why people still use that crappy language is still a miracle for me... [:P]
And revoking programmers licenses?... If they keep this up like this,
soon they will have lost all the above-average customers and all who
are left are users who are to dumb to understand what kind of c**p this
is...
