From the API reference: > {quote} > Note: This method is locale sensitive, and may produce unexpected results if > used for strings that are intended to be interpreted locale independently. > Examples are programming language identifiers, protocol keys, and HTML tags. > For instance, "TITLE".toLowerCase() in a Turkish locale returns "t\u0131tle", > where '\u0131' is the LATIN SMALL LETTER DOTLESS I character. To obtain > correct results for locale insensitive strings, use toLowerCase(Locale.ROOT). > {quote} > Many uses of these functions do appear to be looking up classes, etc. and not > dealing with stored data, so I'd think there aren't significant compatibility > problems here and specifying the locale is indeed the safer way to go. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
