Missing autofix for methods related to jQuery.sap.* (String Utils)

Methods related to jQuery.sap.* (String Utils) are deprecated. Therefore an autofix should be offered by UI5 linter.

Deprecated APIs:

• jQuery.sap.camelCase
• jQuery.sap.charToUpperCase
• jQuery.sap.escapeRegExp
• jQuery.sap.formatMessage
• jQuery.sap.hashCode
• jQuery.sap.hyphen

Deprecated Usage

var textCamelVase = jQuery.sap.camelCase(" First Name Last ");
var textUpperCase = jQuery.sap.charToUpperCase("myValue", 0);
var textEscapedRegx = jQuery.sap.escapeRegExp("ab.c");
var textWithReplacedPlaceholder = jQuery.sap.formatMessage("Say '{0}'", ["Hello"]);
var hashCode = jQuery.sap.hashCode("test");
var textHyphenated = jQuery.sap.hyphen("fooBar");

Recommended Usage

sap.ui.define([
  "sap/base/strings/camelize",
  "sap/base/strings/capitalize",
  "sap/base/strings/escapeRegExp",
  "sap/base/strings/formatMessage",
  "sap/base/strings/hash",
  "sap/base/strings/hyphenate"
], (camelize, capitalize, escapeRegExp, formatMessage, hash, hyphenate) => {
  var textCamelVase = camelize(" First Name Last ");
  var textUpperCase = capitalize("myValue");
  var textEscapedRegx = escapeRegExp("ab.c");
  var textWithReplacedPlaceholder = formatMessage("Say '{0}'", ["Hello"]);
  var hashCode = hash("test");
  var textHyphenated = hyphenate("fooBar");
});

Note for jQuery.sap.charToUpperCase: If no position is given or when it is negative or beyond the last character of the given string, the first character will be converted to upper case.

Note: In older UI5 versions, there were two additional jQuery based APIs available. jQuery.sap.unicode and jQuery.sap.isStringNFC. With UI5 1.58, these APIs were replaced by sap/base/strings/NormalizePolyfill. With the de-support of IE11, all three APIs (also NormalizePolyfill) were removed from the code base because functionality is already supported by native browser APIs. We should also come up with a proposal to offer a migration for these three cases.

Will be implemented in CPOUI5FOUNDATION-990.
