Write code to check if a string starts With another string ignore case

Demo

//package com.book2s;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] argv) {
        String text = "book2s.com";
        String fragment = "book2s.com";
        System.out.println(startsWith(text, fragment));
    }/*w  ww .j  a va2  s . c om*/

    public static boolean startsWith(final String text,
            final String fragment) {
        return startsWithIgnoreCase(text, fragment);
    }

    public static boolean startsWithIgnoreCase(final String target1,
            final String target2) {
        if (target1 == null || target2 == null) {
            return false;
        }
        int length1 = target1.length();
        int length2 = target2.length();
        if (length1 < length2) {
            return false;
        }
        String s1 = target1.substring(0, target2.length());
        return s1.equalsIgnoreCase(target2);
    }

    public static boolean equalsIgnoreCase(final String target1,
            final String target2) {
        return (target1 == null) ? (target2 == null) : target1
                .equalsIgnoreCase(target2);
    }
}
