The plan was either to un-deprecate the method in lang or add
RandomStringUtils - with the current interface, but using
RandomStringGenerator - to text.
The first option is easily archived, while the second requires
significant effort. Also long implements the second option we stick to
the first option.
Cheers,
Pascal

Good afternoon,
I recently happened to pick up commons-lang:3.6 and noticed that
RandomStringUtils was deprecated in favor of
commons-text:RandomStringGenerator.
I work on a moderately sized Java service and a quick find usages in
IntelliJ shows that I have 452 usages of RandomStringUtils, mostly in my
tests.
Was there any discussion of moving the RandomStringUtils class to
commons-text and preserving the API as it stands now? What benefits do we
get when throwing out the RandomStringUtils class altogether in favor a of
a fluent builder (i.e. RandomStringGenerator).
I can't emphasize enough how useful it is to be able to create a random
string via a static method especially when writing unit tests.
Good news for you :-)
