             Summary: Improving StringUtils#substringAfterLast
                 Key: LANG-895
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-895
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: lang.*
    Affects Versions: 3.1
         Environment: any
            Reporter: Ivan Hristov
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 3.2


At the moment, we have the following method public static String substringAfterLast(String str, String separator) in the class StringUtils which returns an empty string in case no separator is present. I think, it would be handy to be able to control what is returned in case no separator is found. For this reason, I would propose to have a method with the following signature:
public static String substringAfterLast(String str, String separator, String defaultValue). The same proposal holds for public static String substringAfter(String str, String separator).
