MessageFormat

[nebulom]

I have this code

public class HelloWorld {
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Object[] param = new Object[] {"some_value"};
        System.out.println(MessageFormat.format("select * from test where column1 = '{0}'", param));
    }

}

But it outputs

select * from test where column1 = {0}

and I need select * from test where column1 = 'some_value'

Oh ok, I can get it to have

        Object[] param = new Object[] {"'some_value'"};
        System.out.println(MessageFormat.format("select * from test where column1 = {0}", param));

and outputs fine. But is there any way I can have the single quote on the .format's parameter? I mean, given by someone I can have some_value to be a final static String member, so I guess it would be better if single quote is on .format method parameter string.

Thanks in advance!

Hmm. Nevermind (and thanks/sori for bothers).

Within a String, "''" represents a single quote.
