Netbeans code templates - string functions
Description
Netbeans contains great tool „code templates“ that allows me to simplify my work.
For many years I missed last functionality for the perfection, which is some additional string function.
Use case/motivation
For example, I have at this time the following code template:
/**
* ${PARAMETER newVarName default="Parameter"} getter
*
* @return ${TYPE newVarName default="Parameter"}
*/
protected function get${PARAMETER editable=false}(): ${TYPE editable=false}
{
return $this->${PROPERTY newVarName default="parameter"};
}
/**
* ${PARAMETER editable=false} setter
*
* @param ${TYPE editable=false} $$${PROPERTY editable=false}
* @return static Provides fluent interface
*/
protected function set${PARAMETER editable=false}(${TYPE editable=false} $$${PROPERTY editable=false})
{
$this->${PROPERTY editable=false} = $$${PROPERTY editable=false};
return $this;
}
That allows me to quickly generate the code of generic getter & setter and simply replace the name ${PARAMETER} with the real one. After that I have to replace the name ${PROPERTY} which should be the same like ${PARAMETER} but with the first letter lowercase.
Will it be possible please to add functionalities like:
- lower case all
- lower case first letter
- upper case all
- upper case first letter
- replace something with something
- replace something with something by regexp?

I want to, but I'm not a Java developer
Code of Conduct
Yes
the templates should be https://freemarker.apache.org/ templates.
I haven't tried it but it should already work, no?
e.g: https://freemarker.apache.org/docs/ref_builtins_string.html#ref_builtin_c_lower_case
@mbien It will be nice but I don't know how to use them :(
I have tried the following codes:
${PARAMETER newVarName default="Parameter"}
${PARAMETER editable=false?uncap_first}
${PARAMETER newVarName default="Parameter"}
${${PARAMETER editable=false}?uncap_first}
And then use them in the code, but it will lead in exception:
java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "String.hashCode()" because "<local4>" is null
