qed commented on LANG-686:
--------------------------
I solved this problem by making this call instead:
StringUtils.replaceEachRepeatedly("aaa", new String[]{"aa", ""}, new
String[]{"aXa", ""});
Maybe there should be a limit to number of iterations or something similar. I
didn't know that this function is not supposed to support recursion. I think
this function is good suited when (java) regex fail in matching already
replaced part of string and hence it shouldn't be dicouraged to use this
function as a solution imho.
> StringUtils.replaceEachRepeatedly("aaa", new String[]{"aa"}, new
> String[]{"aXa"}); throw an exception
