Named placeholders in string formatting

Question

In Python, when formatting string, I can fill placeholders by name rather than by position, like that:

print \"There\'s an incorrect value \'%(value)s\' in c         


        

Answer 1

I tried in just a quick way

public static void main(String[] args) 
{
    String rowString = "replace the value ${var1} with ${var2}";
    
    Map mappedValues = new HashMap<>();
    
    mappedValues.put("var1", "Value 1");
    mappedValues.put("var2", "Value 2");
    
    System.out.println(replaceOccurence(rowString, mappedValues));
}

private static  String replaceOccurence(String baseStr ,Map mappedValues)
{
    for(String key :mappedValues.keySet())
    {
        baseStr = baseStr.replace("${"+key+"}", mappedValues.get(key));
    }
    
    return baseStr;
}
