How to check if a String contains another String in a case insensitive manner in Java?

Question

Say I have two strings,

String s1 = \"AbBaCca\";
String s2 = \"bac\";

I want to perform a check returning that s2 is contained

Answer 1

Yes, contains is case sensitive. You can use java.util.regex.Pattern with the CASE_INSENSITIVE flag for case insensitive matching:

Pattern.compile(Pattern.quote(wantedStr), Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE).matcher(source).find();

EDIT: If s2 contains regex special characters (of which there are many) it's important to quote it first. I've corrected my answer since it is the first one people will see, but vote up Matt Quail's since he pointed this out.
