toLowerCase() is Locale Based

Posted by Chirag Jain in Java, Java Strings on July 6, 2010

I have found this very interesting and informative post for Java developers. Many Java developers may not know that toLowerCase() and toUpperCase() methods of java.lang.String class are Locale based. Have a look here at javadocs for these methods.

toLowerCase() internally calls toLowerCase(Locale locale). Same is the case for toUpperCase().
