Paul King resolved GROOVY-7472. ------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Assignee: Andres Almiray (was: Guillaume Laforge) > 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: Andres Almiray > 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} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
