Arun Vinud commented on TEXT-88:
---------------------------------
I feel all these calls should return the same output.
*WordUtils.capitalizeFully("i am fine") --> I Am Fine*
*WordUtils.capitalizeFully("i am fine", null) --> I Am Fine*
*WordUtils.capitalizeFully("i am fine", new char[]{}) --> I am fine* (Assuming
the latest change yet to be merged)
Its a bit ambiguous to add space as the default delimiter for the first two
calls when we pass null for delimiter array but not when we pass empty
delimiter array. From a developer perspective passing an empty or null for
delimiter array would essentially mean they don't have or want any delimiters
and I feel its kind of proactive not necessarily in a good way to consider
space as delimiter for the first two cases . What you guys think?
> WordUtils.capitalizeFully behaves in a counterintuitive manner with empty
> delimiter array.

> As discussed in TEXT-85, it seems that

> WordUtils.capitalizeFully("i am fine", new char[]{}) // --> i am fine
> {code}
> Both Sebb and Arun think that this is odd and that the letter "i" should have
> been capitalized resulting in the output {{I am fine}}
