Description Michael Lawrence 2007-05-08 02:37:56 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Classes with names containing multiple consecutive capitals are not correctly transformed to their lowercase_with_underscores representation. For example, InputStreamFTP becomes input_stream_ft_p rather than input_stream_ftp. The "P" should probably become "_p" only when there are subsequent lowercase characters in the name.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Compile class named InputStreamFTP
2. 
3. 


Actual results:
Methods have names prefixed by input_stream_ft_p

Expected results:
Prefix should be input_stream_ftp

Does this happen every time?
Yes
