Henri Yandell commented on LANG-268:
------------------------------------

I'm thinking that if someone passes in a startIndex that is greater than the 
endIndex, that we should throw an IllegalArgumentException.

> StringUtils.join should allow you to pass a range for it (so it only joins a 
> part of the array)

> Currently join, takes an array of objects, adn joins them using a character 
> or string as a separator.
> The problem is that there are many instances where I have an array, but I 
> only want to join part of it.  There are various split, etc. I can use to get 
> this to work, but the problem is that they are all inefficient and more work 
> than I think I should have to do.
> I've attached a patch that introduces two new methods to do what I am 
> requesting (one for the string case, one for the character case), as well as 
> additions to the unit tests.
