Pascal Schumacher closed LANG-742.
----------------------------------
       Resolution: Won't Fix
    Fix Version/s:     (was: Review Patch)

No comments for over 5 years. I guess this feature is a bit too specific for 
commons-lang, so I'm closing this.

> This is a proposal for a feature addition.
> On several projects, I've needed to perform case insensitive manipulation on 
> Arrays of Strings. My original need was just a solution for 
> containsIgnoreCase(String[], String) and indexOfIgnoreCase(String[], String). 
> In an effort to keep things simple, I created this class which implements 8 
> [IgnoreCase] methods that could be a benefit to Commons Lang users.
> StringArrayUtils extends ArrayUtils, it provides case insensitive 
> manipulation on an Array of Strings.
> The new methods provided in the class are:
> containsIgnoreCase(String[] array, String stringToFind)
> indexOfIgnoreCase(String[] array, String stringToFind)
> indexOfIgnoreCase(String[] array, String stringToFind, int startIndex)
> isEqualsIgnoreCase(String[] array1, String[] array2)
> lastIndexOfIgnoreCase(String[] array, String stringToFind)
> lastIndexOfIgnoreCase(String[] array, String stringToFind, int startIndex)
> removeElementIgnoreCase(String[] array, String element)
> removeElementsIgnoreCase(String[] array, String... values)
> These eight methods cover the functional pattern provided in ArrayUtils. Any 
> comparison in ArrayUtils based on obj1.equals(obj2) now has an equivalent 
> str1.equalsIgnoreCase(str2) in StringArrayUtils.
> I've included a test case and have made efforts to match your coding 
> convention and style. Thanks in advance for your time and consideration. I'd 
> be happy to follow up with any changes or edits if you think this is 
> something that might be included in a future version of Commons Lang.

> Ps. I understand that handling a special case for the String's 
> equalsIgnoreCase(...) may  be a slippery slope - which has been intentionally 
> avoided.  I have also considered overloading the above eight methods with a 
> Comparator parameter, but requiring a user to pass in a not-null, 
> case-insensitive comparator didn't seem as straight forward as the above 
> solution.
