Saif Asif updated LANG-1752:
----------------------------
Description:
Overtime, more and more APIs are being added to the StringUtils class that are
a variation of existing APIs based on casing e.g `endsWithIgnoreCase` is just
`endsWith` with an additional boolean ignoreCase set to true.
{{private static boolean endsWith(final CharSequence str, final CharSequence
suffix, final boolean ignoreCase)}}
This leads to StringUtils class increasing in size.
I would like to propose that we refactor StringUtils class and move all
ignoreCase APIs to their own class e.g something like `StringUtilsIgnoreCase`
or so.
Since the refactoring will be huge, we can target for the next major version
(4.0?) and introduce `@deprecated` on the methods to give users enough time to
track and update their existing code bases.
What does the community think ?
