Java jstl function endswith
The JSTL (JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library) fn
tag library provides a set of functions for manipulating strings, collections, and other objects in JSP (JavaServer Pages) pages. One of the functions in the fn
tag library is the fn:endsWith
function, which is used to check if a string ends with a specified suffix.
The fn:endsWith
function takes two arguments: a string and a suffix to check for. The function returns a boolean value indicating whether the string ends with the specified suffix. The syntax of the function is as follows:
${fn:endsWith(string, suffix)}
where string
is the string to check, and suffix
is the suffix to check for.
For example, to check if a string ends with the suffix "ing", you would use the following expression:
${fn:endsWith('example string', 'ing')}
This expression returns true
, because the string "example string" ends with the suffix "ing".
You can also use variables instead of literals for the string
and suffix
arguments. For example, if you have a variable text
containing a string, you can check if it ends with the suffix "ing" using the following expression:
${fn:endsWith(text, 'ing')}
This expression returns true
if the variable text
ends with the suffix "ing".
Note that the fn
tag library must be imported at the beginning of the JSP page using the following tag:
<%@ taglib prefix="fn" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/functions" %>
This imports the fn
tag library and assigns it a prefix of fn
.
