Henri Yandell closed LANG-465.
------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Torsten gives a talk on Commons at a high level each ApacheCon. There have been
books and articles.
*shrug* :) Most people are quite bored when we start going through the long
list of small useful things - they're looking for paradigm shifts.
> Better advertizing of utils
> ---------------------------
>
> Key: LANG-465
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-465
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Wish
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Environment: any
> Reporter: Gregor B. Rosenauer
> Priority: Trivial
>
> Recently I had a problem with Unicode characters and some backend system that
> does not support Unicode.
> I searched the Web for existing source and found some which I reused for
> translating to/from Unicode escapes, so I could store the data in the backend
> system without garbling characters.
> Now I just found out about StringEscapeUtils.escapeJava() and .unescapeJava()
> which does exactly this and works perfectly!
> The Apache community never seizes to amaze me, well done - but please *do*
> advertize these handy utility functions more publicly! Why do only the "front
> end" projects get all the attention, when there are such jewels hiding away
> in the dark? :-)))
> Thanks for another great library.
