Daniel Barclay (Drill) created DRILL-3697: ---------------------------------------------
Summary: REGEXP_REPLACE doc. says POSIX reg. expr.; which? not Java? Key: DRILL-3697 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-3697 Project: Apache Drill Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Daniel Barclay (Drill) The {{REGEXP_REPLACE}} function documentation currently at [https://drill.apache.org/docs/string-manipulation/#regexp_replace] says that {{REGEXP_REPLACE}} uses POSIX regular expressions. Is that true (that Drill using POSIX regular expressions and not Java regular expressions)? If that's really true, are they BREs or EREs? Assuming it's actually Java regular expressions, the documentation should probably have a link to some appropriate target in the JDK Java doc (maybe http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html and http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/regex/Matcher.html#replaceAll-java.lang.String-. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
