All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<IOCase>
```
public enum IOCase
extends Enum<IOCase>
```
Enumeration of IO case sensitivity.
Different filing systems have different rules for case-sensitivity. Windows is case-insensitive, Unix is case-sensitive.

This class captures that difference, providing an enumeration to control how file name comparisons should be performed. It also provides methods that use the enumeration to perform comparisons.

Wherever possible, you should use the check methods in this class to compare file names.

- Enum Constant Detail
  - INSENSITIVE
```
public static final IOCase INSENSITIVE
```
    The constant for case-insensitive regardless of operating system.
  - SENSITIVE
```
public static final IOCase SENSITIVE
```
    The constant for case-sensitive regardless of operating system.
  - SYSTEM
```
public static final IOCase SYSTEM
```
    The constant for case sensitivity determined by the current operating system. Windows is case-insensitive when comparing file names, Unix is case-sensitive.
    Note: This only caters for Windows and Unix. Other operating systems (e.g. OSX and OpenVMS) are treated as case-sensitive if they use the Unix file separator and case-insensitive if they use the Windows file separator (see File.separatorChar).
    
    If you serialize this constant on Windows, and deserialize on Unix, or vice versa, then the value of the case-sensitivity flag will change.

public int checkCompareTo(String str1,
                          String str2)
```
    Compares two strings using the case-sensitivity rule.
    This method mimics String.compareTo(java.lang.String) but takes case-sensitivity into account.
    
    Parameters:
    
    str1 - the first string to compare, not null.
    
    str2 - the second string to compare, not null.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if equal using the case rules.
    
    Throws:
    
    NullPointerException - if either string is null.
  - checkEndsWith
```
public boolean checkEndsWith(String str,
                             String end)
```
    Checks if one string ends with another using the case-sensitivity rule.
    This method mimics String.endsWith(java.lang.String) but takes case-sensitivity into account.
    
    Parameters:
    
    str - the string to check.
    
    end - the end to compare against.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if equal using the case rules, false if either input is null.
  - checkEquals
```
public boolean checkEquals(String str1,
                           String str2)
```
    Compares two strings using the case-sensitivity rule.
    This method mimics String.equals(java.lang.Object) but takes case-sensitivity into account.
    
    Parameters:
    
    str1 - the first string to compare.
    
    str2 - the second string to compare.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if equal using the case rules.
  - checkIndexOf
```
public int checkIndexOf(String str,
                        int strStartIndex,
                        String search)
```
    Checks if one string contains another starting at a specific index using the case-sensitivity rule.
    This method mimics parts of String.indexOf(String, int) but takes case-sensitivity into account.
    
    Parameters:
    
    str - the string to check.
    
    strStartIndex - the index to start at in str.
    
    search - the start to search for.
    
    Returns:
    
    the first index of the search String, -1 if no match or null string input.
  - checkRegionMatches

public boolean checkRegionMatches(String str,
                                  int strStartIndex,
