private static String mySpecDelimiter

The delimiter, which rounds replacing macros

private static String expandMacro(String macro, Properties macros, Stack pendingMacros)
                            throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Implements recursive expanding of a single macro

public static String expandString(String stringWithMacros, Properties macros)
                            throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Replaces all occurences of macros in the string
Examples:
stringWithMacros = "%%a%% = %%b%% + %%c%%";
macros = {{"a", "5"}, {"b", "2"}, {"c", "3"}}
result: "5 = 2 + 3"
stringWithMacros = "%%a%% = %%b%% + %%c%%";
macros = {{"a", "6"}, {"b", "%%c%%"}, {"c", "3"}}
result: "6 = 3 + 3"
stringWithMacros = "%%a%% = %%b%% + %%c%%";
macros = {{"a", "6"}, {"b", "%%c%%"}, {"c", "%%b%%"}}
result: thrown IllegalArgumentException - recursion found

Parameters:

stringWithMacros - original string

macros - properties table with macro name-values pairs

Returns: expanded string

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException in case of recursive definition of macros

private static String expandString(String stringWithMacros, Properties macros, Stack pendingMacros)
                             throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Implements recursive expanding of string with macros

public static String getPrefix(String str, char separator)

Returns prefix of the line Example: getPrefix ("WebLogic.PublicID", '.') will return "WebLogic"
getPrefix ("WebLogic.PublicID", ',') will return "WebLogic.PublicID"

public static String replace(String source, String searchFor, String replaceWith)

Replaces a part(s) of the source string by new contents The method replaces all occurences of searchFor in original
string. It means that after first replacing new text (replaceWith) will not be searched for searchFor, and it's
possible to make replacement of "%%tag%%" by "%%tag%%%%tag%%" without getting of infinitive cycle.

Parameters:

source a source string

searchFor a string which should be replaced

replaceWith a string which replaces searchFor

public static String replaceMacro(String source, String macroName, String macroValue)

Calls replace method to replace all occurence of source macroName rounded with mySpecDelimiter by macroValue.
Example, if macroName is "dir", then "%%dir%%" string occurences will be under replacement by macroValue
