StringUtils.stripEnd() using a '.' as an "any" character
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: LANG-666
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-666
Project: Commons Lang
Issue Type: Bug
Components: lang.*
Affects Versions: 2.5
Environment: JAVA 6, mac os X
Reporter: Vincent Fumo
Priority: Minor
The documentation for stripEnd() indicates that the second parameter should be
the string to stip from the end of the first paramater. This mostly works, but
I think I found a case where it doesn't and that's when there is a period '.'
character in the stripChars. It seems to be counting the period as a regex
anychar. Example code :
// trying to strip the cents from a dollar amount
String result = StringUtils.stripEnd("120.00", ".00");
System.out.println("Expected \"120\", got \"" + result + "\"");
// maybe we should escape the dot?
result = StringUtils.stripEnd("120.00", "\\.00");
System.out.println("Expected \"120\", got \"" + result + "\"");
