This is a port for GWT, which enables program, to use Apache Commons Lang also in the frontend compiled by the gwt compiler to java-script. The code is tested using the latest revision of the JDK for supported LTS releases: 8, 11, 17 and 21 currently. See https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/blob/master/.github/workflows/maven.yml Please ensure your build environment is up-to-date and kindly report any build issues.
