Description Ray Case

Build Identifier: Version: Indigo Service Release 1 Build id: 20110916-0149

Allow java.editor.templates to allow String manipulations.  Specifically, in addition to 'insert variable' there needs to be functions like toUpperCase, toLowerCase or toCamelCase  

In my case, I am using the 'enclosing type' variable to generate a variable name.  The enclosing type is capitalized where the variable name needs to start with a lower case letter to fit java standards.   So the template *almost* generates the correct template code, but needs to have the variable renamed. 

Thanks!
Ray
