------------------------------------------------------
Sorry, but that does nothing to convince me that the method would be useful to
many people.
And the example would be simpler to implement using standard Java formatting to
convert int to a string with leading zeros.

> Addition of stripStartToChar
> ----------------------------

> Key: LANG-1173
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1173
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: lang.*
> Reporter: Satyanarayana J
> Priority: Minor
>
> Looking for any possibility to add additional methods into StringUtils.
> We already use stripStart , which strips set of leading whitespaces to empty.
> As an addition, can we have below method?
> * stripStartToChar(String str, String/Character char) - leading whitespaces
> to a specific character/string
> or
> * stripStartAndReplace(String str, String stripChars, String/Character char)
> - leading characters to a specific character/string
> These methods could be useful to strip leading whitespaces/characters with a
> replacement string/characters
