Tilman Hausherr commented on TIKA-3730: --------------------------------------- Yes, thanks, it worked this morning (I found out now that I'm back). I'm doing another pull and run the build again just to be sure. > New ExternalParser doesn't work on Windows > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: TIKA-3730 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-3730 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: Tim Allison > Priority: Trivial > Fix For: 2.4.0 > > > [~tilman] noted that the external2.ExternalParser uses "replaceAll" on a > regex where the replacement is a file path does not work on Windows. The > replaceAll strips the file separators. I admit that I cannot figure out why > this is is happening. I've tried a couple of combinations of backslashing > etc, but nothing is working. I even tried Pattern.quote() and that doesn't > work on Windows. > If we back off to use "replace" with a string, everything seems to work. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.7#820007)
