ellipsize
Truncates the string to the specified maximum length by replacing the middle portion with an ellipsis.
If the string is null, its length is less than or equal to maxLength, or maxLength is less than 5, the original string is returned unchanged. Otherwise, the string is shortened by keeping the start and end segments and inserting "..." in the middle so that the total length does not exceed maxLength.
Return
The original string if no truncation is needed, or a new string with the middle replaced by an ellipsis if truncation occurs.
Parameters
max
The maximum allowed length of the resulting string, including the ellipsis. Must be at least 5 to perform truncation.
