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)
