I'm developing an android app, I need to construct an url form some strings in an Ad object.
So, the header has to be converted into a correct url string, in Codeigniter I have the function called:
url_title($str, $separator = '-', $lowercase = FALSE)
But how I do this in android?
My actual string:
"https://www.bachecubano.com" + category + "/" + my_custom_function(header) + "/" + ad_id;
where my_custom_function(header) is the desired function which removes spaces, remove special characters, etc.
The query = URLEncoder.encode(text, "utf-8"); answer won't solve my problem, it change space for +, I need spaces changed to -
Actual string:
https://www.bachecubano.com/celulares/QUEREMOS+Q+TENGA+UN+BUEN+TELEFONO+Y+LO+ADQUIERA+MAS+BARATO/674337
Desired String:
https://www.bachecubano.com/celulares/QUEREMOS-Q-TENGA-UN-BUEN-TELEFONO-Y-LO-ADQUIERA-MAS-BARATO/674337
In other words, I need this in Java (PHP function)
return preg_replace('/[^a-zA-Z0-9]+/', ' ', $string);
