Henri Yandell commented on LANG-673:
------------------------------------
I don't think so.
I've removed the WordUtils.abbreviate version as it's the newer of the pair.
svn ci -m "Removing WordUtils.abbreviate as it's already found in
StringUtils.abbreviate. This was identified in LANG-673"

Committed revision 1062328.
Leaving this open to discuss whether the StringUtils.abbreviate method is
preferred in WordUtils.

> The javadoc does not indicate that the string must already be long enough to
> abbreviate; yet it really does or an Exception is thrown. For example, if you
> try to abbreviate a string of length 10 at 40 characters, this will fail. I
> believe this should be allowed... just without any abbreviation.
