Apache Commons Lang 3.0 is a java library with lot of utilities and reusable components. This requires the library commons-lang3-3.0.1.jar to be in classpath. The following example shows using ArrayUtils.indexOf() API. It returns the index of element in the array if found, otherwise returns -1.

package com.bethecoder.tutorials.commons_lang.tests.arrays;

import org.apache.commons.lang3.ArrayUtils;

public class IndexOfTest {

  /**
   @param args
   */
  public static void main(String[] args) {

    String [] strings = "TWO""ONE""TWO""THREE""TWO""FOUR" };
    int [] ints = 123245672};

    System.out.println(ArrayUtils.indexOf(strings, "TWO"));
    System.out.println(ArrayUtils.indexOf(strings, "FIVE"));
    
    System.out.println(ArrayUtils.indexOf(ints, 2));
    System.out.println(ArrayUtils.indexOf(ints, 9));
  }

}
   

It gives the following output,

-1
