有很多方法可以转换第一个大写单词的第一个字母。我有个主意。这很简单:

public String capitalize(String str){

     /* The first thing we do is remove whitespace from string */
     String c = str.replaceAll("\\s+", " ");
     String s = c.trim();
     String l = "";

     for(int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++){
          if(i == 0){                              /* Uppercase the first letter in strings */
              l += s.toUpperCase().charAt(i);
              i++;                                 /* To i = i + 1 because we don't need to add               
                                                    value i = 0 into string l */
          }

          l += s.charAt(i);

          if(s.charAt(i) == 32){                   /* If we meet whitespace (32 in ASCII Code is whitespace) */
              l += s.toUpperCase().charAt(i+1);    /* Uppercase the letter after whitespace */
              i++;                                 /* Yo i = i + 1 because we don't need to add
                                                   value whitespace into string l */
          }        
     }
     return l;
}

如果你需要大写标题，这可能很有用。它将每个由" "分隔的子字符串大写，除了"a"或"the"之类的指定字符串。我还没有运行它，因为已经晚了，不过应该没问题。一次使用Apache Commons StringUtils.join()。如果你愿意，你可以用一个简单的循环来代替它。

private static String capitalize(String string) {
    if (string == null) return null;
    String[] wordArray = string.split(" "); // Split string to analyze word by word.
    int i = 0;
lowercase:
    for (String word : wordArray) {
        if (word != wordArray[0]) { // First word always in capital
            String [] lowercaseWords = {"a", "an", "as", "and", "although", "at", "because", "but", "by", "for", "in", "nor", "of", "on", "or", "so", "the", "to", "up", "yet"};
            for (String word2 : lowercaseWords) {
                if (word.equals(word2)) {
                    wordArray[i] = word;
                    i++;
                    continue lowercase;
                }
            }
        }
        char[] characterArray = word.toCharArray();
        characterArray[0] = Character.toTitleCase(characterArray[0]);
        wordArray[i] = new String(characterArray);
        i++;
    }
    return StringUtils.join(wordArray, " "); // Re-join string
}

这是一个简单的函数

public static String capEachWord(String source){
    String result = "";
    String[] splitString = source.split(" ");
    for(String target : splitString){
        result += Character.toUpperCase(target.charAt(0))
                + target.substring(1) + " ";
    }
    return result.trim();
}

来自Java 9+

你可以像这样使用String::replaceAll:

public static void upperCaseAllFirstCharacter(String text) {
    String regex = "\\b(.)(.*?)\\b";
    String result = Pattern.compile(regex).matcher(text).replaceAll(
            matche -> matche.group(1).toUpperCase() + matche.group(2)
    );

    System.out.println(result);
}

例子:

upperCaseAllFirstCharacter("hello this is Just a test");

输出

Hello This Is Just A Test

下面是这个问题的Kotlin版本:

fun capitalizeFirstLetterOfEveryWord(text: String): String
{
    if (text.isEmpty() || text.isBlank())
    {
        return ""
    }

    if (text.length == 1)
    {
        return Character.toUpperCase(text[0]).toString()
    }

    val textArray = text.split(" ")
    val stringBuilder = StringBuilder()

    for ((index, item) in textArray.withIndex())
    {
        // If item is empty string, continue to next item
        if (item.isEmpty())
        {
            continue
        }

        stringBuilder
            .append(Character.toUpperCase(item[0]))

        // If the item has only one character then continue to next item because we have already capitalized it.
        if (item.length == 1)
        {
            continue
        }

        for (i in 1 until item.length)
        {
            stringBuilder
                .append(Character.toLowerCase(item[i]))
        }

        if (index < textArray.lastIndex)
        {
            stringBuilder
                .append(" ")
        }
    }

    return stringBuilder.toString()
}

public static String toTitleCase(String word){
    return Character.toUpperCase(word.charAt(0)) + word.substring(1);
}

public static void main(String[] args){
    String phrase = "this is to be title cased";
    String[] splitPhrase = phrase.split(" ");
    String result = "";

    for(String word: splitPhrase){
        result += toTitleCase(word) + " ";
    }
    System.out.println(result.trim());
}
