String.tr()

since v0.1

This feature contributed to Groovy! Now it’s available with Groovy 1.7.3 or later. If you want to use it with Groovy 1.7.2 or previous, you can still use it with kobo-commons.

As category:

        import org.jggug.kobo.commons.lang.StringCategory
        use(StringCategory) {
            assert "abcdefghijklmn".tr("abc", "ABC") == "ABCdefghijklmn"
            assert "abcdefghijklmn".tr("a-c", "A-N") == "ABCdefghijklmn"
        }

As enhanced String:

        import org.jggug.kobo.commons.lang.StringUtils
        StringUtils.extendMetaClass()
        assert "abcdefghijklmn".tr("abc", "ABC") == "ABCdefghijklmn"
        assert "abcdefghijklmn".tr("a-c", "A-N") == "ABCdefghijklmn"

As utility:

        import org.jggug.kobo.commons.lang.StringUtils
        assert StringUtils.tr("abcdefghijklmn", "a-n", "A-C") == "ABCCCCCCCCCCCC"
        assert StringUtils.tr("abcdefghijklmn", "a-c", "A-N") == "ABCdefghijklmn"
