> If you do say StringUtils.countMatches("x", ""), then it goes into an infinite loop.
> Also sub isn't checked for null if str is null also. For instance
> StringUtils.countMatches(null, null) should throw an NPE instead of 0.
> To fix both problems put the following code at the start of the method:
> {code:java}
>         if (sub.equals("")) {
>             return 0;
>         }
> {code}
