-------------------------------

i am planning to work on this. Can someone kindly advise me on what exception i should be throwing in this case (IllegalArgumentException?)

> Currently, StringSubstitutor is not replacing a variable that is unknown. It would be nice to define the behavior in this case and to allow raising an exception.
> A workaround is to define a custom StringLookup that raises an exception when the variable is unknown but this prevent from using the default value feature from StringSubstitutor
