decapitalize

actual fun String.~~decapitalize~~(): String(source)(source)

Deprecated

Use replaceFirstChar instead.

Replace with

import java.util.Locale

replaceFirstChar { it.lowercase(Locale.getDefault()) }

Returns a copy of this string having its first letter lowercased using the rules of the default locale, or the original string if it's empty or already starts with a lower case letter.

Since Kotlin

1.0
