[jira] [Commented] (LANG-1043) isAllUpperCase should only check Alpha characters

["Duncan Jones (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1043?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15759028#comment-15759028 ] 

Duncan Jones commented on LANG-1043:
------------------------------------

Any complaints if I close this? Looks like we've reached consensus that the current method behaves like it should. I feel there hasn't been a strong case put forward for why we should add another method that checks only alphabetic characters.

> Currently, isAllUpperCase checks character by character if the current character is UpperCase or not using Character.isUpperCase().
> The problem is that characters like spaces aren't considered as uppercase characters.
> IMHO, isAllUpperCase should only check the state of alpha characters so that :
> - StringUtils.isAllUpperCase("ABC DEF GHI") = true (false currently)
> - StringUtils.isAllUpperCase("ABC / DEF") = true (false currently)
