[jira] [Commented] (LANG-1237) String Split For Fixed-Length Strings

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1237?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15298308#comment-15298308 ] 

Sebb commented on LANG-1237:
----------------------------

What is the use case for this?

And why choose a 0-based index rather than the lengths of each sub-string - or some other way of defining the split locations?
