Aldrin Leal commented on LANG-285:
----------------------------------
Gary/Guillaume,
You might have noticed my convertion doesn't handle all the cases, since it
was made to convert using Brazilian Portuguese - which is a valid point.
Regarding Gary: All strings in a .class file are stored in UTF-8 encoding,
which some notable exceptions. Thus, it's not encoding-dependent, apart from
being careful while compiling, since you can easily compile from a wrong
encoding this yielding valid sequences in your .class file.
> Wish : method unaccent

> Key: LANG-285
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-285
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Guillaume Coté
> Priority: Minor
>
> I would like to add a method that replace accented caracter by unaccented
> one. For example, with the input String "L'été où j'ai dû aller à l'île
> d'Anticosti commenca tôt", the method would return "L'ete ou j'ai du aller à
> l'ile d'Anticosti commenca tot".
> I suggest to call that method unaccent and to add it in StringUtils.
> If we cannot covert all case, the first version could only covert iso-8859-1.
> If you are willing to go forward with that idea, I am willing to contribute a
> patch.
