[protege-discussion] A Method That Cleans Text

[Nick Khamis]

Hello Everyone,

 Is there a method in the Protegex OWL-API that cleans the text normalizing
it to a format that will play nice when creating individuals or concepts
etc... avoiding rudimentary methods that look something like something like
this:

protected static String ConvertAsciiToText(String pValue)
    {
        if (pValue != null)
        {
    pValue = pValue.replace("@", "-");
    pValue = pValue.replace("!", " ");
    pValue = pValue.replace("$", "-");
    pValue = pValue.replace("%", " Percent ");
    pValue = pValue.replace("(","-");
    pValue = pValue.replace(")","-");
    pValue = pValue.replace("*", "-");
    pValue = pValue.replace("<","-");
    pValue = pValue.replace(">", "-");
    pValue = pValue.replace("@", "-at-");
    pValue = pValue.replace("^", "_");
    pValue = pValue.replace("`", " ");

Thanks in Advanced,
Ninus.
