I'd like to use org.apache.commons.lang.text.StrSubstitutor without a suffix requirement for the replacement targets, but it doesn't seem to support that. Is that correct?

Although the doc for org.apache.commons.lang.text.StrSubstitutor disallows a null prefix or suffix in the constructor, it doesn't mention the empty string. I tried the empty string for the prefix and suffix but that didn't work.

By looking at the code, yes, it seems that a suffix is required.

How do the variables look like you are dealing with? Perhaps it is an option to provide your own implementation of the StrMatcher class [1], which is internally used for detecting prefixes and suffixes (StrSubstitutor has methods that take such matchers instead of a prefix and a suffix as string). This should not be too complicated.
