Strings.lenientSubstring() #503

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Please add a Strings.substring() method similar to

http://commons.apache.org/lang/api-2.5/org/apache/commons/lang/StringUtils.html#
substring(java.lang.String, int, int)

PS: I'm not using apache commons as it's not supported in GWT

The URL is not escaped and hence incomplete. Here is a working version:

http://commons.apache.org/lang/api-2.5/org/apache/commons/lang/StringUtils.html#
substring%28java.lang.String%2C%20int%2C%20int%29

This was proposed internally a few years ago.  If implemented, it would be 
called Strings.lenientSubstring().  However, we are generally predisposed 
against the "forgiving" style of API (a very brief post by Guava team member 
Jesse: http://publicobject.com/2008/06/strict-vs-forgiving-apis.html), and we 
have not found a lot of evidence that there is a strong user need for this.

I still agree with the me of a year ago.  Closing for now unless a 
preponderance of supporting evidence emerges.

Proposed Issue 1124 to support just the negative indexes from the end of a 
string without the leniency.
