String Startswith and Endswith
FreeMarker is a java based template engine for complex template processing.
This requires the library freemarker-2.3.16.jar to be in classpath.
The following example shows using String starts_with and ends_with built-in functions.
03<#assign a = "be the coder"?ends_with("coder")>
04${a?string("true", "false")}
06<#assign a = "be the coder"?ends_with("the")>
07${a?string("true", "false")}
11<#assign a = "be the coder"?starts_with("be")>
12${a?string("yes", "no")}
14<#assign a = "be the coder"?starts_with("the")>
15${a?string("yes", "no")}
