In this article, we will discuss how to test whether a string ends with particular character sequence (another string or suffix) using String’s endsWith() method
1. String’s endsWith(String suffix) method:
- This String method tests whether invoking string ends with specified/supplied suffix
1.1 Method Signature:
public boolean endsWith(String suffix);
1.2 Returns:
- Returns a boolean value either true or false
- True –> if invoking string ends with string suffix (supplied/passed as argument)
- False –> if invoking string doesn’t ends with string suffix (supplied/passed as argument)
2. Examples on endsWith() method:
- Below demo program examines whether invoking string ends with specified suffix
StringEndsWithMethod.java
package in.bench.resources.string.methods;
public class StringEndsWithMethod {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String str1 = "German Siemens";
String str2 = new String("Team BenchResources.Net");
// checking with string literal
boolean bool1 = str1.endsWith("mens");
// printing to the console
System.out.println("Whether str1 endsWith mens : "
+ bool1);
// checking with string literal
boolean bool2 = str2.endsWith("Net");
// printing to the console
System.out.println("Whether str2 endsWith Net : "
+ bool2);
// case false: not endsWith
System.out.println("Whether str1 endsWith Bench : "
+ str1.endsWith("Bench"));
}
}
Output:
Whether str1 endsWith mens : true
Whether str2 endsWith Net : true
Whether str1 endsWith Bench : false
