Rename ObjectUtils.toString() to asString().
--------------------------------------------
Key: LANG-420
URL:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-420 Project: Commons Lang
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.3
Reporter: Stephen Kestle
Priority: Trivial
With Java 5 static method inlining, methods do not require class qualifying *unless* the class already has the method.
For this reason, ObjectUtlis.toString() cannot be inlined to toString(), as Object has a toString() method.
It would be nice for it to have a name that could be statically imported, such as asString. This would follow the naming convention of Arrays.asList()
Note that this DOES NOT need a java 5 version of lang.
