Methods

Method	Description
org.apache.commons.lang3.ArrayUtils.add(boolean[], int, boolean)	this method has been superseded by ArrayUtils.insert(int, boolean[], boolean...) and may be removed in a future release. Please note the handling of null input arrays differs in the new method: inserting X into a null array results in null not X.

org.apache.commons.lang3.ArrayUtils.removeAllOccurences(boolean[], boolean)	Use ArrayUtils.removeAllOccurrences(boolean[], boolean)
org.apache.commons.lang3.CharEncoding.isSupported(String)	Please use Charset.isSupported(String) instead, although be aware that null values are not accepted by that method and an IllegalCharsetNameException may be thrown.
org.apache.commons.lang3.CharUtils.toCharacterObject(char)	Java 5 introduced Character.valueOf(char) which caches chars 0 through 127.
org.apache.commons.lang3.exception.ExceptionUtils.getCause(Throwable)	This feature will be removed in Lang 4.0, use Throwable.getCause() instead
org.apache.commons.lang3.exception.ExceptionUtils.getDefaultCauseMethodNames()	This feature will be removed in Lang 4.0
org.apache.commons.lang3.math.NumberUtils.isNumber(String)	This feature will be removed in Lang 4.0, use NumberUtils.isCreatable(String) instead
org.apache.commons.lang3.ObjectUtils.equals(Object, Object)	this method has been replaced by java.util.Objects.equals(Object, Object) in Java 7 and will be removed from future releases.
org.apache.commons.lang3.ObjectUtils.hashCode(Object)	this method has been replaced by java.util.Objects.hashCode(Object) in Java 7 and will be removed in future releases
org.apache.commons.lang3.ObjectUtils.hashCodeMulti(Object...)	this method has been replaced by java.util.Objects.hash(Object...) in Java 7 and will be removed in future releases.
org.apache.commons.lang3.ObjectUtils.identityToString(StrBuilder, Object)	as of 3.6, because StrBuilder was moved to commons-text, use one of the other identityToString methods instead
org.apache.commons.lang3.ObjectUtils.toString(Object)	this method has been replaced by java.util.Objects.toString(Object) in Java 7 and will be removed in future releases. Note however that said method will return "null" for null references, while this method returns an empty String. To preserve behavior use java.util.Objects.toString(myObject, "")
org.apache.commons.lang3.reflect.FieldUtils.removeFinalModifier(Field, boolean)	As of Java 12, we can no longer drop the final modifier, thus rendering this method obsolete. The JDK discussion about this change can be found here: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2018-November/056486.html
org.apache.commons.lang3.StringEscapeUtils.escapeXml(String)	use StringEscapeUtils.escapeXml10(java.lang.String) or StringEscapeUtils.escapeXml11(java.lang.String) instead.
