Emmanuel Bourg commented on TEXT-34:
------------------------------------
The builder pattern is a good idea, however the implementation will need a bit
more to be feature equivalent with {{RandomStringUtils}}. Being able to select
the characters used is important and simply allowing a range of characters
isn't enough. For example I use {{RandomStringUtils}} to generate license codes
and I use upper case latin letters, excepted those that could be confused with
a digit (O, I).

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEXT-34
> Project: Commons Text
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Duncan Jones
> Assignee: Duncan Jones
>
> The {{RandomStringUtils}} class will be deprecated in Commons Lang and reborn
> in Commons Text.
> Because the original class has some complicated parameters and potentially
> unnecessary capabilities, I'll simplify as I move it across. I'll also ensure
> the class plays nicely with Unicode characters.
