    • constantStringLookup

      public StringLookup constantStringLookup()
      Returns the ConstantStringLookup singleton instance to look up the value of a fully-qualified static final value.

      Sometimes it is necessary in a configuration file to refer to a constant defined in a class. This can be done with this lookup implementation. Variable names must be in the format apackage.AClass.AFIELD. The lookup(String) method will split the passed in string at the last dot, separating the fully qualified class name and the name of the constant (i.e. static final) member field. Then the class is loaded and the field's value is obtained using reflection.

      Once retrieved values are cached for fast access. This class is thread-safe. It can be used as a standard (i.e. global) lookup object and serve multiple clients concurrently.

      Using a StringLookup from the StringLookupFactory: 

       StringLookupFactory.INSTANCE.constantStringLookup().lookup("java.awt.event.KeyEvent.VK_ESCAPE");

      Using a StringSubstitutor: 

       StringSubstitutor.createInterpolator().replace("... ${const:java.awt.event.KeyEvent.VK_ESCAPE} ..."));

      The above examples convert java.awt.event.KeyEvent.VK_ESCAPE to "27".

      Returns:
      The DateStringLookup singleton instance.
      Since:
      1.5

      Using a StringSubstitutor: 

       StringSubstitutor.createInterpolator().replace("... ${date:yyyy-MM-dd} ..."));

      The above examples convert "yyyy-MM-dd" to todays's date, for example, "2019-08-04".
