Hi all:

In BCB/Delphi, there is a function "StringReplace" can be used.
For example, I write a code as below(BCB):

AnsiString sz="a_b_c_d_e_f";
sz=StringReplace(sz, "_", "", TReplaceFlags()<<rfReplaceAll);

It can change the AnsiString sz from "a_b_c_d_e_f" to "abcdef".
So...My question is....Is there an API like "StringReplace" in Java?
Or there is another simple way can solve this problem?

Thanks.
RaynorPao.

See the replaceAll() and replaceFirst() methods in the String class.  
These work with regular expressions, so they are quite a bit more 
powerful than the method you describe.

However, these methods were introduced in Java 1.4.  Previous Java 
versions (and 1.4 as well) have a replace() method that will replace 
each occurrence of one character with another, but that does not seem 
to be what you need.
