Henri Yandell commented on LANG-510:
------------------------------------
Note for future changes - don't change javadoc to say 'CharSequence'. I think
that makes things much harder to read. Nicer to keep it with String, yet have
the magic of StringBuffer, StrBuilder and StringBuilder working as well.
> Convert StringUtils API to take CharSequence
> --------------------------------------------

> Key: LANG-510
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-510
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: lang.*
> Reporter: Henri Yandell
> Fix For: 3.0
>
> Attachments: LANG-510-indexOf.patch
>
>
> 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.
