Method

Stringtruncate(String string, int length)
Truncates string at given length, appends "..." if string was shortened 
return string.length() > length ? string.substring(0, length) + "..." : string;
Stringtruncate(String string, int maxLength, boolean atBeginning, String ellipse)
Returns a truncated version of the string, where the removed part is marked by ellipse. 
int length = string.length();
int removedLength = length - maxLength - ellipse.length();
if (removedLength > 0) {
    string = (atBeginning ? ellipse + string.substring(removedLength)
            : string.substring(0, length - removedLength) + ellipse);
return string;
Stringtruncate(String string, int maxSize)
This method truncates the given String value to the given size, but appends an ellipse ("...") if the String is larger than maxSize. 
string = toNull(string);
if (string.length() <= maxSize)
    return string;
return String.format("%s...", string.subSequence(0, maxSize - 3));
Stringtruncate(String string, int n, String suffix)
truncate 
if (string.length() - suffix.length() > n) {
    return string.substring(0, n) + suffix;
return string;
Stringtruncate(String strOrginal, int iByteMaxSize)
truncate 
int iByteLen = 0;
final int strLen = strOrginal.length();
if (iByteMaxSize < 4) {
    return "...".substring(0, iByteMaxSize);
for (int i = 0; i < strLen; i++) {
    iByteLen += ((strOrginal.charAt(i) & 0xFF00) == 0) ? 1 : 2;
    if (iByteLen > iByteMaxSize) {
...
Stringtruncate(String text)
Truncates a string from the end (right) in one character 
return truncate(text, 1, false);
Stringtruncate(String text, int len)
Truncate the supplied text to a maximum of len codepoints. 
if (text.codePointCount(0, text.length()) <= len) {
    return text;
return firstN(text, len - 1) + TRUNCATE_CHAR;
Stringtruncate(String text, int length)
Truncates the string to a particular length if it's longer and appends ... 
if (text == null || text.length() <= length) {
    return text;
return new String(ellipsify(text.substring(0, length)));
Stringtruncate(String text, int length)
truncate 
return text.length() > length ? text.substring(0, length - 1) + "..." : text;
Stringtruncate(String text, int maxLength)
truncate 
if (text == null || text.length() <= maxLength) {
    return text;
} else if (maxLength <= 3) {
    return TRUNCATED_TEXT_SUFFIX;
} else {
    return text.substring(0, maxLength - 3) + TRUNCATED_TEXT_SUFFIX;
