Note to OP: The above (proposed) solution produces the result
aLONG_OBJECT_NAME, which is not the specified result. A correct
solution, with explanation of why the above approach fails, was given
in another response to the OP's post.

Worth pointing out that a test taking perhaps a minute would have sufficed
to show that the

$str =~ s/_(\w+)/\U$1/g;


as suggested by Steven Kuo, in his response to googler,

doesn't do the trick. Your solution follows. The point being, if one posts
a
code snippet that one purports to work, one should actually test it.

Thanks, Arved. Your are indeed correct.

Personally, I was reluctant to point out to the respondent, Steven Kuo, what
I felt should have been obvious to him, as well as to the OP, after reading
my responses. Thanks to your suggestion, googler and Steven Kuo needn't have
to infer, from what I wrote, the point that you stated explicitly.

BTW, I tested all of the variations that were mentioned, before copying &
pasting the results into my postings.

Cheers,
