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();
}

Use:

    String text = "jon skeet, miles o'brien, old mcdonald";

    Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("\\b([a-z])([\\w]*)");
    Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(text);
    StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
    while (matcher.find()) {
        matcher.appendReplacement(buffer, matcher.group(1).toUpperCase() + matcher.group(2));
    }
    String capitalized = matcher.appendTail(buffer).toString();
    System.out.println(capitalized);

使用org.apache.commons.lang.StringUtils可以使它变得非常简单。

capitalizeStr = StringUtils.capitalize(str);

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

  package com.test;

这里是一个lil程序，我是用来大写每个第一个字母单词在每个子文件夹的父目录。

private void capitalize(String string)
{
    List<String> delimiters = new ArrayList<>();
    delimiters.add(" ");
    delimiters.add("_");

    File folder = new File(string);
    String name = folder.getName();
    String[] characters = name.split("");

    String newName = "";
    boolean capitalizeNext = false;

    for (int i = 0; i < characters.length; i++)
    {
        String character = characters[i];

        if (capitalizeNext || i == 0)
        {
            newName += character.toUpperCase();
            capitalizeNext = false;
        }
        else
        {
            if (delimiters.contains(character)) capitalizeNext = true;
            newName += character;
        }
    }

    folder.renameTo(new File(folder.getParent() + File.separator + newName));
}
