用StringBuilder解决方案:

value = new StringBuilder()
                .append(value.substring(0, 1).toUpperCase())
                .append(value.substring(1))
                .toString();

. .基于之前的答案

String sentence = "ToDAY   WeAthEr   GREat";    
public static String upperCaseWords(String sentence) {
        String words[] = sentence.replaceAll("\\s+", " ").trim().split(" ");
        String newSentence = "";
        for (String word : words) {
            for (int i = 0; i < word.length(); i++)
                newSentence = newSentence + ((i == 0) ? word.substring(i, i + 1).toUpperCase(): 
                    (i != word.length() - 1) ? word.substring(i, i + 1).toLowerCase() : word.substring(i, i + 1).toLowerCase().toLowerCase() + " ");
        }

        return newSentence;
    }

StringUtils.capitalize（str）

来自apache commons-lang。

如果你只想大写一个名为input的字符串的第一个字母，其余的保持不变:

String output = input.substring(0, 1).toUpperCase() + input.substring(1);

现在输出将有您想要的内容。在使用此方法之前，请检查您的输入至少是一个字符，否则将会出现异常。

我想在接受的答案上添加一个NULL检查和IndexOutOfBoundsException。

String output = input.substring(0, 1).toUpperCase() + input.substring(1);

Java代码:

  class Main {
      public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Capitalize first letter ");
        System.out.println("Normal  check #1      : ["+ captializeFirstLetter("one thousand only")+"]");
        System.out.println("Normal  check #2      : ["+ captializeFirstLetter("two hundred")+"]");
        System.out.println("Normal  check #3      : ["+ captializeFirstLetter("twenty")+"]");
        System.out.println("Normal  check #4      : ["+ captializeFirstLetter("seven")+"]");

        System.out.println("Single letter check   : ["+captializeFirstLetter("a")+"]");
        System.out.println("IndexOutOfBound check : ["+ captializeFirstLetter("")+"]");
        System.out.println("Null Check            : ["+ captializeFirstLetter(null)+"]");
      }

      static String captializeFirstLetter(String input){
             if(input!=null && input.length() >0){
                input = input.substring(0, 1).toUpperCase() + input.substring(1);
            }
            return input;
        }
    }

输出:

Normal  check #1      : [One thousand only]
Normal  check #2      : [Two hundred]
Normal  check #3      : [Twenty]
Normal  check #4      : [Seven]
Single letter check   : [A]
IndexOutOfBound check : []
Null Check            : [null]

另外，Spring Framework中还有org.springframework.util.StringUtils:

StringUtils.capitalize(str);
