Sebb created LANG-835: ------------------------- Summary: StrBuilder should support StringBuilder as an input parameter Key: LANG-835 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-835 Project: Commons Lang Issue Type: Improvement Components: lang.text.* Environment: Although StrBuilder supports CharSequence (and thus StringBuilder), it does so by converting it to a String temporarily. This is a bit wasteful.
It would be useful to support StringBuilder directly, as that provides the getChars() method which does a direct copy of the buffer contents. This would involve adding two new methods: getChars(StringBuilder) getChars(StringBuilder, int, int) which can be a direct copy of the StringBuffer methods. Sadly there is no accessible interface or super-class that would allow the methods to share code. Reporter: Sebb -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
