Hi all
There appears to be a bug with NameRegex filters in editfiles:
If a filter matches any file in the directory, all files in the directory
are edited.
The version is 2.1.20 using the package from blastwave
Also noted by Edward F. Brown that this is also the case in 2.1.22
Nexus and client is on sun 5.9 sparc
Test scenario...
In a directory /dir1/dir2/conf
I have a whole bunch of files:
a_exporter.conf
b_exporter.conf
c_importer.conf
d_importer.conf
afilenoext
We only edit files that match the regular expression *importer.conf
eg. change string yyy with string xxx
All files in the directory may the string yyy.
If I use a filter like so below, all the files in the /dir1/dir2/conf path
get
edited.
<snip>
control:
actionsequence = ( directories files editfiles )
editfilesize = ( 200000 )
filters:
{ filteralias
NameRegex: "^.*importer\.conf$"
Result: "NameRegex"
}
ignore:
any::
*.cfsaved
editfiles:
10_240_64_230::
{ /dir1/dir2/conf
Filter "filteralias"
BeginGroupIfNoSuchLine "yyy"
ReplaceFirst "yyy" With "zzz"
DefineInGroup "edit_blah_blah"
EndGroup
}
alerts:
edit_blah_blah::
"File has been edited"
</snip>
Should we use sourceforge.net
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=browse&group_id=126712&atid=706640
or gnu.org to submit bugs ?

Many thanks.
