             Summary: JaroWinklerSimilarity uses Object.equals to test for 
equality
                 Key: TEXT-151
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEXT-151
             Project: Commons Text
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.7
            Reporter: Alex D Herbert


Using Object.equals to test for equality of a {{CharSequence}} is wrong:
{code:java}
CharSequence cs1, cs2;
cs1.equals(cs2);
{code}

The Unit test passes because the test uses the same String on both sides. When 
I changed the unit test to wrap the string with a {{CharSequence}} interface it 
fails.

It should be replaced with:

{code:java}
CharSequence cs1, cs2;
StringUtils.equals(cs1, cs2);
{code}
