Return String from String[]?

Hey guys,

Is there an way to return a normal String (that you can use in p.haspermissions(//String))
So i have this little String array:

Code:

public final String[] staffPermissions = {
        "network.rank.owner", "network.rank.crew", "network.rank.moderator", "network.rank.builder",
        "network.rank.support", "network.rank.sponsor"
    };

And i want to return it in a String, like this:

Code:

public String getStaffPermissions() {
        return staffPermissions;
    }

But im getting a error, and i cant make it from a Strig[] to a normal string!
Is there an way to do this?

 

@jusjus112 So do you want to combine all of the contents into one String? If so, use a StringBuilder.

 

This will turn it all into one string that you can return,
I wasn't sure if you wanted all of them on one line or not.
If you want them all on one line remove the ' + "\n" ' part.

Code:

    public final String getStaffPermissions(){
        String result;
        for(String perm : staffPermission){
            result = result + perm + " " + "\n";
        }
        return result;
           
    }

Hope this helped, if something doesn't work tell me.

 

Code:

StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
for (String s : staffPermisions) {
       builder.append(s);
}

String combinedStrings = builder.toString();

 

@macboinc @JasonT148796 wouldn't Arrays.toString(E[]); work? Unless you want a specific format.

 

Or better yet:

Code:java

String yourNewString = StringUtils.join(yourArray, someDelimiterString);
