Paul King commented on GROOVY-7472:
-----------------------------------
+1 for the method as per spec above.
Only thing that puzzles me is that actual commit seems to have incorrect last
assertion in the grooydoc yet the CI server didn't fail.
> Missing uncapitalize method
> ---------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-7472
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7472
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: groovy-jdk
> Affects Versions: 2.4.3
> Reporter: Andres Almiray
> Assignee: Guillaume Laforge
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.5.0-beta-1
>
>
> Groovy has had a `capitalize` method since 1.8.2 but it does not have the
> mirror opposite: `uncapitalize`. A few weeks ago I was working with string
> manipulations and was surprised by this omission.
> Based on
> http://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/groovy-jdk/java/lang/CharSequence.html#capitalize()
> the rules for uncapitalize should be as follows:
> {code}
> assert 'H'.uncapitalize() == 'h'
> assert 'Hello'.uncapitalize() == 'hello'
> assert 'Hello world'.uncapitalize() == 'hello world'
> assert 'Hello World'.uncapitalize() == 'hello World'
> assert 'hello world' ==
> 'Hello World'.split(' ').collect{ it.uncapitalize() }.join(' ')
> {code}
