Trimming a string

It is easy to use the talendTrim routine, along with a tJava component to remove the string padding characters from the start and end of the string:

System.out.println(TalendString.talendTrim("**talend open studio****",'*', -1));
System.out.println(TalendString.talendTrim("**talend open studio****",'*', 1)); 
System.out.println(TalendString.talendTrim("**talend open studio****",'*',0));
