Henri Yandell commented on LANG-420:
------------------------------------
Yep, I can confirm. Also will be a problem in ArrayUtils, BooleanUtils,
ReflectionToStringBuilder, CharUtils.
equals(..) will be a problem in ObjectUtils and StringUtils.
hashCode(..) will be a problem in ArrayUtils and ObjectUtils.
getClass(..) will be a problem in ClassUtils.
clone(..) will be a problem in ArrayUtils and SerializationUtils.
Work around - use the full invocation, ie: ObjectUtils.toString(...). I'm not
sure we'll want to go renaming all of the above.
> Rename ObjectUtils.toString() to asString().

> Key: LANG-420
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-420
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.3
> Reporter: Stephen Kestle
> Priority: Trivial
> Fix For: LangTwo 1.0
>
> Original Estimate: 0.5h
> Remaining Estimate: 0.5h
>
> With Java 5 static method inlining, methods do not require class qualifying
> *unless* the class already has the method.
> For this reason, ObjectUtlis.toString() cannot be inlined to toString(), as
> Object has a toString() method.
> It would be nice for it to have a name that could be statically imported,
> such as asString. This would follow the naming convention of Arrays.asList()
> Note that this DOES NOT need a java 5 version of lang.
