String’s replace returns a new string

[Andreas Sinz]

Did your version work?

[leolima]

apply returns the same object

[Hamza]

soo.. should i use somrhing else?

[leolima]

in this case you probably want run, it returns the result from the inner block

[Hamza]

kk

[Andreas Sinz]

don't need anything, simply chain the replacements together:

val value = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(bytes)
                          .replace(...)
                          .replace(...)

[Hamza]

i just did this:

val value = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(bytes).run {
		replace("+", "-").replace("/", "_").replace("=", "")
	}

[Hamza]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Hamza]

same thing, ahah

[Hamza]

i’ll just rmeove the run then
