public class StringUtil
- extends java.lang.Object
In JDK 1.3 we don't have the luxury of replaceAll as in JDK 1.4.
The replace methods from this string class are intended to be used
until JDK 1.4 is used.
For completely different implementations of the replace methods, please see
https://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=31&thread=284142&message=1109785
Replacing a whole word is completely different from replacing all instances.
To avoid confusion, the method names are different too.
