Method Details

escapeForPropertyValue

public static String escapeForPropertyValue(String text)

Escapes an ICAL parameter value according to the ^-escaping mechanism defined by RFC 6868. The ^-escaping mechanism can be used when the value is either unquoted or quoted (i.e., whether or not the value is surrounded by double- quotes).

Note: The special characters comma (,), semicolon ; and colon (:) do not have such an escaping mechanism -- text containing these characters MUST be surrounded with double quotes (RFC 5545 Section 3.2).

Parameters:

text - Text to be escaped. null is treated as the empty string.

Returns:

The text, escaped according to RFC 6868.
