Apparently you guys forgot about joinWith:
https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/apidocs/org/apache/commons/lang3/StringUtils.html#joinWith-java.lang.String-java.lang.Object...-
However, even without this method, StringUtils.join can easily be
replaced with streams:
Stream.of(x, y, z).collect(joining("."));

Gary,
That's a good point. I wasn't thinking about StringUtil's applicability to
Object array.

Java 8 has String.join for the same purpose.
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#join-java.lang.CharSequence-java.lang.CharSequence...-
I would deprecate StringUtils.join in favor of String.join.
How would that work when StringUtils.join works with Object input and
String.join uses CharSequence?
Would you convert all Objects to Strings in a new array and then call
String.join? Seem like it could be painful to create a new array for each
call.

Definitely +1 if we didn't already do this, except I would put what I
call
a "Yoda preposition" in there, e.g. joinBy or joinWith.

HI All:
Now that Java's had varargs for a while now, using APIs like
org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils.join(Object[], char) feels
backward
to
me. I want to say:
StringUtils.join('.', "foo", "bar", "bang");
Not:
StringUtils.join(new String[] { "foo", "bar", "bang" }, '.');
Any thoughts on deprecating the former for the latter (which would
be a
new
API)?
