> Often times there are strings which are delimited, but certain patterns can
> escape the delimiter. For example, quotes are used in CSV to escape a comma
> delimiter. I have written a couple methods for StringUtils that split
> strings while considering the possibility of an escape pattern. For example,
> when given "a,\"b,c\",c", it will produce {"a","\"b,c\"","c"}. In my code,
> the delimiter can be a string, and it can be escaped by any regular
> expression pattern. Unit tests are already written and passing.
> I plan to attach the patch for this once the ticket is created. I just need
> a committer to review the patch, approve, and commit it for me.
