>             Project: Commons Lang
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: lang.*
>    Affects Versions: 3.x

> StringUtils.split does not behave correctly when the split is to be performed on word boundary characters ("\b"). Steps to produce the bug:
> String string = "foo<bar>foofoo";
> String[] st=StringUtils.split(string, "\b");
> Expected o/p:
> foo
> <
> bar
> >
> foofoo
>  
> Actual o/p:
> foo<bar>foofoo
> The issue seems to be with how zero-width separators are being handled. Note that Java library's String.split gives the expected output.
> Thanks.
