Felix Müller updated LANG-766:
------------------------------

    Attachment: LANG-766.patch

Hi,

I've copied the code from 2.6 and refactored the tests. I tested it against trunk (3.2). See patch attached.

Maybe it would also be a good idea to make the abrevMarker in StringUtils.abbreviate a parameter? So that StringUtils is also more flexible.

Regards,
Felix

> Commons Lang 2.x has method WordUtils.abbreviate(java.lang.String str, int lower, int upper, java.lang.String appendToEnd), which 
> # operates on words not Strings as StringUtils.abbreviate 
> # it allows to specify what shoud be appended to string (StringUtils.abbreviate always appends "...")
> In 3.0 there is no such method, but it was very usefull. please add support for WordUtils.abbreviate
