Pascal Schumacher commented on TEXT-119:
----------------------------------------

Thanks for reporting!

As far as I know neither commons-lang3 nor commons-text never supported SQL 
escaping. Commons-lang 2.x supported SQL escaping, but this was dropped in 3.0, 
see https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/article3_0.html for details.

I'm not aware of any other Java ASF project is providing this functionally, but 
there are a lot of projects so I may miss something.

I have removed the mention of SQL escaping from the commons-text userguide.

>             Project: Commons Text
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.2
>            Reporter: Scott Markwell

>              Labels: docuentation, roadmap

> The Commons Text user guide indicates StringEscapeUtils supposed SQL as an 
> escape
> [http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-text/userguide.html]
> Commons Lang3 indicates the functionality of 
> org.apache.commons.lang3.StringEscapeUtils was moved to Commons Text (which 
> does include SQL escape) and deprecates it's own implementation.
> [http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-text/changes-report.html] Provides 
> no insight on the lack of SQL support
>  
> I'm not sure the correct path forward, as project intentions aren't clear.  
> If the project has no intention of supporting SQL, the user-guide should be 
> updated and notes about migrating from commons-lang3 should note that stance. 
>  Additionally if another Java ASF project is providing that functionality it 
> should be indicated.  If this is an oversight on inclusion in the Commons 
> Text project, then I guess this is a missing feature request.
> Thanks for all the great work
