Method

StringtruncateString(String text, int truncateAt)
Truncates a string. 
if (text == null)
    return null;
if (truncateAt < _TRUNCATE_AT_MINIMUM)
    truncateAt = _TRUNCATE_AT_MINIMUM;
if (text.length() > truncateAt) {
    text = text.substring(0, truncateAt - _ELLIPSIS_LENGTH) + _ELLIPSIS;
return text;
...
StringtruncateStringAt(String source, int len)
Returns a new string that is the first len chars of source 
if (source.length() < len) {
    return source;
return source.substring(0, len);
StringtruncateStringChars(String strIn, String substituteChars, int maxChars, boolean keepRightSide)
Truncates a string to the number of characters in maxChars The character count includes the substitute characters (which will only be added if the string is truncated) 
if (strIn.length() <= maxChars) {
    return strIn;
strIn = strIn.replaceAll(" ", "");
if (strIn.length() <= maxChars) {
    return strIn;
