Henri Yandell commented on LANG-510:
------------------------------------

Methods that could move to CharSequence if we had an indexOf:

stripStart
stripEnd
ordinalIndexOf; though this requires a lastIndexOf(CharSequence also being 
added)
contains
indexOfAny(String, String[])
lastIndexOfAny(String, String[]); with said method above being added
substringBefore/After etc
possible all the split code

Can be moved over already:

substring - with a slight slow down for the single int method as subSequence 
will force it to calculate the length (not actually a calculation Harmony 
directly repeats)
many of the indexOfAny methods
left, right, mid

.... I got tired of listing things :) Still a lot that can move over without 
the indexOf change, and even more that can with that change.

[In fact I'm cursing the lack of indexOf on CharSequence]

> Wherever possible, use CharSequence and not String in the StringUtils API.
> substring can go to subSequence inside code. The general substring method can 
> be replaced with a subSequence method and substring deprecated(?). One 
> question is whether to implement a CharSequence.indexOf type method. Given 
> that it's merely a walking method(?!?), this might be quite handy and would 
> allow a bunch of StringUtils methods to move over.
