                 Key: LANG-652
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-652
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: lang.*
            Reporter: Chris Kujawa
             Fix For: 3.1


I added a new equals method the StringUtils that allows users to call one 
common method to determine whether two Strings are equal.
In other words, instead of calling 
        StringUtils.equals( x, y) for case sensitive comparisons
    and
        StringUtils.equalsIgnoreCase( x, y ) for case-insensitive comparisons
    my addition allows a user to simple call
        StringUtils.equals( x, y, true) for case-sensitive comparisons
    or
        StringUtils.equals(x,y, false) for case-insensitive comparisons

    I believe this will be cleaner, and much easier to read than having two 
different method calls.
