-------------------------------------
Summary: StringEscapeUtils.escapeXPath()
Key: LANG-1019
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1019
Project: Commons Lang
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: lang.*
Affects Versions: 3.3.2
Reporter: Yegor Bugayenko
Would be great to create a method that would escape a string for XPath. It is a
well known problem that XPath doesn't have a mechanism for quotes escaping. See
for example
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14822153/escape-single-quote-in-xpath-with-nokogiri
A very good workaround suggested here https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51785
Would be great to add a method to StringEscapeUtils
