Sebb commented on LANG-922:
---------------------------
Although it provides an alternative method for achieving the same result, it is
at the expense of always scanning the entire arrray.
Whereas the existing methods can stop processing early in most cases.
Also, I'm not sure that there is any use case for count being anything other
than 0, 1, and length().
> Add isOneTrue(booleans...) to BooleanUtils to preserve old behavior of
> BooleanUtils.xor(booleans...)

> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: lang.*
> Reporter: Benedikt Ritter
> Assignee: Benedikt Ritter
> Fix For: 3.2
>
>
> The old implementation (prior to r1532476) of BooleanUtils.xor(boolean...)
> checked if the provided array contained exactly one boolean with value true.
> This was changed because it is not the correct behavior for an XOR operation.
> To preserve the behavior we should add BooleanUtils.isOneTrue(boolean...) and
> BooleanUtils.isOneTrue(Boolean...) (and possibly the equivalents for
> isOneFalse).
