java list lt gt 用法,加入List< String>在Java中使用逗号和“和”

Given a list

List l = new ArrayList();

l.add("one");

l.add("two");

l.add("three");

I have a method

String join(List messages) {

if (messages.isEmpty()) return "";

if (messages.size() == 1) return messages.get(0);

String message = "";

message = StringUtils.join(messages.subList(0, messages.size() -2), ", ");

message = message + (messages.size() > 2 ? ", " : "") + StringUtils.join(messages.subList(messages.size() -2, messages.size()), ", and ");

return message;

}

which, for l, produces "one, two, and three".

My question is, is there a standard (apache-commons) method that does the same?, eg

WhatEverUtils.join(l, ", ", ", and ");

To clarify. My problem is not getting this method to work. It works just as I want it to, it's tested and all is well. My problem is that I could not find some apache-commons-like module which implements such functionality. Which surprises me, since I cannot be the first one to need this.

But then maybe everyone else has just done

StringUtils.join(l, ", ").replaceAll(lastCommaRegex, ", and");

In Java 8 you can use String.join() like following:

Collection elements = ....;

String result = String.join(", ", elements);
