-----------------------------------------------------------------

I've reviewed the patch. I agree with sebb, the doc can be tweaked, but that's no problem. What need's to be discussed is the behavior for null inputs:

{code}
StringUtils.startsWith(null, null) = true
StringUtils.startsWithAny(null, null) = false
{code}

(this also applies for the other methods). I think they should behave the same for null inputs. The question how the following should behave:

{code}
StringUtils.startsWithAny(null, new String[]{ null })
{code}
