Sebb commented on LANG-833:
---------------------------
Actually, one cannot use AbstractStringBuilder as that is not visible.
The problem is twofold:
- there's no suitable common interface or class for StringBuilder and
StringBuffer
- changing to use StringBuilder would break compatibility, and might cause some
applications that rely on the sync. to fail
I don't see how it's possible to use StringBuilder without either:
- breaking compatibility and some apps, OR
- duplicating the API
> ToStringBuilder should use StringBuilder

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: lang.*
> Affects Versions: 3.1

> Rewriting as lang3 but still using StringBuffer (synchronized) looks like a
> missed opportunity. Please use StringBuilder.
> Suggest audit for uses of StringBuffer in lang3 overall. No cause for it.
