## Method Details

### split

public static String[] split(String splittee, String splitChar, boolean truncate)
This is almost equivalent to the `String.split(String)` method in JDK 1.4. It is here to enable us to support earlier JDKs.

Note that unlike JDK1.4 split(), it optionally ignores leading split Characters, and the splitChar parameter is not a Regular expression

This piece of code used to be part of JMeterUtils, but was moved here because some JOrphan classes use it too.

Parameters:
  `splittee` - String to be split
  `splitChar` - Character(s) to split the string on, these are treated as a single unit
  `truncate` - Should adjacent and leading/trailing splitChars be removed?
Returns:
  Array of all the tokens; empty if the input string is `null` or the splitChar is `null`
See Also:
  - `split(String, String, String)`

### split

public static String[] split(String splittee, String splitChar)

### split

public static String[] split(String splittee, String delims, String def)
Takes a String and a tokenizer character string, and returns a new array of strings of the string split by the tokenizer character(s).

Trailing delimiters are significant (unless the default = null)

Parameters:
  `splittee` - String to be split.
  `delims` - Delimiter character(s) to split the string on
  `def` - Default value to place between two split chars that have nothing between them. If null, then ignore omitted elements.
Returns:
  Array of all the tokens.
Throws:
  `NullPointerException` - if splittee or delims are `null`
See Also:
  - `split(String, String, boolean)`
  - `

    This is a rewritten version of JMeterUtils.split()

    `

### rightAlign

public static StringBuilder rightAlign(StringBuilder in, int len)
