-/**
- * Substitutes variables within a string by values.
- * <p>
- * This class takes a piece of text and substitutes all the variables within it.
- * The default definition of a variable is <code>${variableName}</code>.
- * The prefix and suffix can be changed via constructors and set methods.
- * <p>
- * Variable values are typically resolved from a map, but could also be resolved
- * from system properties, or by supplying a custom variable resolver.
- * <p>
- * The simplest example is to use this class to replace Java System properties. For example:
- * <pre>
- * StrSubstitutor.replaceSystemProperties(
- *      "You are running with java.version = ${java.version} and os.name = ${os.name}.");
- * </pre>
- * <p>
- * Typical usage of this class follows the following pattern: First an instance is created
- * and initialized with the map that contains the values for the available variables.
- * If a prefix and/or suffix for variables should be used other than the default ones,
- * the appropriate settings can be performed. After that the <code>replace()</code>
- * method can be called passing in the source text for interpolation. In the returned
- * text all variable references (as long as their values are known) will be resolved.
- * The following example demonstrates this:
- * <pre>
- * Map valuesMap = HashMap();
- * valuesMap.put(&quot;animal&quot;, &quot;quick brown fox&quot;);
- * valuesMap.put(&quot;target&quot;, &quot;lazy dog&quot;);
- * String templateString = &quot;The ${animal} jumped over the ${target}.&quot;;
- * StrSubstitutor sub = new StrSubstitutor(valuesMap);
- * String resolvedString = sub.replace(templateString);
- * </pre>
- * yielding:
- * <pre>
- *      The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
- * </pre>
- * <p>
- * Also, this class allows to set a default value for unresolved variables.
- * The default value for a variable can be appended to the variable name after the variable
- * default value delimiter. The default value of the variable default value delimiter is ':-',
- * as in bash and other *nix shells, as those are arguably where the default ${} delimiter set originated.
- * The variable default value delimiter can be manually set by calling {@link #setValueDelimiterMatcher(StrMatcher)},
- * {@link #setValueDelimiter(char)} or {@link #setValueDelimiter(String)}.
- * The following shows an example with variable default value settings:
- * <pre>
- * Map valuesMap = HashMap();
- * valuesMap.put(&quot;animal&quot;, &quot;quick brown fox&quot;);
- * valuesMap.put(&quot;target&quot;, &quot;lazy dog&quot;);
- * String templateString = &quot;The ${animal} jumped over the ${target}. ${undefined.number:-1234567890}.&quot;;
- * StrSubstitutor sub = new StrSubstitutor(valuesMap);
- * String resolvedString = sub.replace(templateString);
- * </pre>
- * yielding:
- * <pre>
- *      The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog. 1234567890.
- * </pre>
- * <p>
- * In addition to this usage pattern there are some static convenience methods that
- * cover the most common use cases. These methods can be used without the need of
- * manually creating an instance. However if multiple replace operations are to be
- * performed, creating and reusing an instance of this class will be more efficient.
- * <p>
- * Variable replacement works in a recursive way. Thus, if a variable value contains
- * a variable then that variable will also be replaced. Cyclic replacements are
- * detected and will cause an exception to be thrown.
- * <p>
- * Sometimes the interpolation's result must contain a variable prefix. As an example
- * take the following source text:
- * <pre>
- *   The variable ${${name}} must be used.
- * </pre>
- * Here only the variable's name referred to in the text should be replaced resulting
- * in the text (assuming that the value of the <code>name</code> variable is <code>x</code>):
- * <pre>
- *   The variable ${x} must be used.
- * </pre>
- * To achieve this effect there are two possibilities: Either set a different prefix
- * and suffix for variables which do not conflict with the result text you want to
- * produce. The other possibility is to use the escape character, by default '$'.
- * If this character is placed before a variable reference, this reference is ignored
- * and won't be replaced. For example:
- * <pre>
- *   The variable $${${name}} must be used.
- * </pre>
- * <p>
- * In some complex scenarios you might even want to perform substitution in the
- * names of variables, for instance
- * <pre>
- * ${jre-${java.specification.version}}
- * </pre>
- * <code>StrSubstitutor</code> supports this recursive substitution in variable
- * names, but it has to be enabled explicitly by setting the
- * {@link #setEnableSubstitutionInVariables(boolean) enableSubstitutionInVariables}
- * property to <b>true</b>.
- * <p>This class is <b>not</b> thread safe.</p>

+ * and initialized with the map that contains the values for the available variables.
+ * If a prefix and/or suffix for variables should be used other than the default ones,
+ * the appropriate settings can be performed. After that the <code>replace()</code>
+ * method can be called passing in the source text for interpolation. In the returned
+ * text all variable references (as long as their values are known) will be resolved.
+ * The following example demonstrates this:
+ * <pre>
+ * Map valuesMap = HashMap();
+ * valuesMap.put(&quot;animal&quot;, &quot;quick brown fox&quot;);
+ * valuesMap.put(&quot;target&quot;, &quot;lazy dog&quot;);
+ * String templateString = &quot;The ${animal} jumped over the ${target}.&quot;;
+ * StrSubstitutor sub = new StrSubstitutor(valuesMap);
+ * String resolvedString = sub.replace(templateString);
+ * </pre>
+ * yielding:
+ * <pre>
+ *      The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
+ * </pre>
+ * <p>
+ * Also, this class allows to set a default value for unresolved variables.
+ * The default value for a variable can be appended to the variable name after the variable
+ * default value delimiter. The default value of the variable default value delimiter is ':-',
+ * as in bash and other *nix shells, as those are arguably where the default ${} delimiter set originated.
+ * The variable default value delimiter can be manually set by calling {@link #setValueDelimiterMatcher(StrMatcher)},
+ * {@link #setValueDelimiter(char)} or {@link #setValueDelimiter(String)}.
+ * The following shows an example with variable default value settings:
+ * <pre>
+ * Map valuesMap = HashMap();
+ * valuesMap.put(&quot;animal&quot;, &quot;quick brown fox&quot;);
+ * valuesMap.put(&quot;target&quot;, &quot;lazy dog&quot;);
+ * String templateString = &quot;The ${animal} jumped over the ${target}. ${undefined.number:-1234567890}.&quot;;
+ * StrSubstitutor sub = new StrSubstitutor(valuesMap);
+ * String resolvedString = sub.replace(templateString);
+ * </pre>
+ * yielding:
+ * <pre>
+ *      The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog. 1234567890.
+ * </pre>
+ * <p>
+ * In addition to this usage pattern there are some static convenience methods that
+ * cover the most common use cases. These methods can be used without the need of
+ * manually creating an instance. However if multiple replace operations are to be
+ * performed, creating and reusing an instance of this class will be more efficient.
+ * <p>
+ * Variable replacement works in a recursive way. Thus, if a variable value contains
+ * a variable then that variable will also be replaced. Cyclic replacements are
+ * detected and will cause an exception to be thrown.
+ * <p>
+ * Sometimes the interpolation's result must contain a variable prefix. As an example
+ * take the following source text:
+ * <pre>
+ *   The variable ${${name}} must be used.
+ * </pre>
+ * Here only the variable's name referred to in the text should be replaced resulting
+ * in the text (assuming that the value of the <code>name</code> variable is <code>x</code>):
+ * <pre>
+ *   The variable ${x} must be used.
+ * </pre>
+ * To achieve this effect there are two possibilities: Either set a different prefix
+ * and suffix for variables which do not conflict with the result text you want to
+ * produce. The other possibility is to use the escape character, by default '$'.
+ * If this character is placed before a variable reference, this reference is ignored
+ * and won't be replaced. For example:
+ * <pre>
+ *   The variable $${${name}} must be used.
+ * </pre>
+ * <p>
+ * In some complex scenarios you might even want to perform substitution in the
+ * names of variables, for instance
+ * <pre>
+ * ${jre-${java.specification.version}}
+ * </pre>
+ * <code>StrSubstitutor</code> supports this recursive substitution in variable
+ * names, but it has to be enabled explicitly by setting the
+ * {@link #setEnableSubstitutionInVariables(boolean) enableSubstitutionInVariables}
+ * property to <b>true</b>.
+ * <p>This class is <b>not</b> thread safe.</p>
+ *
+ * @since 1.0
+ * @deprecated Use {@link StringSubstitutor}. This class will be removed in 2.0.
