Add Charset sister APIs to method that take a String charset name. ------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IO-318 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-318 Project: Commons IO Issue Type: New Feature Environment: Apache Maven 3.0.4 (r1232337; 2012-01-17 03:44:56-0500) Maven home: C:\Java\apache-maven-3.0.4\bin\.. Java version: 1.7.0_03, vendor: Oracle Corporation Java home: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_03\jre Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: Cp1252 OS name: "windows 7", version: "6.1", arch: "amd64", family: "windows" Reporter: Gary D. Gregory Fix For: 2.3 Add Charset sister APIs to method that take a String charset name (aka encoding). For example: foo(..., String charsetName) -> foo(..., Charset charset). Refactor such that we do not have code duplication of the algorithms. Known issue: Source compatibility. Now there are APIs that change only by the last type, String vs. Charset, you will get a compile error if you pass null to the API because the target method will be ambiguous, so you have to type cast to one type or the other. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
