ASF GitHub Bot commented on GEODE-8141: --------------------------------------- DonalEvans opened a new pull request #5127: URL: https://github.com/apache/geode/pull/5127 Thank you for submitting a contribution to Apache Geode. In order to streamline the review of the contribution we ask you to ensure the following steps have been taken: ### For all changes: - [x] Is there a JIRA ticket associated with this PR? Is it referenced in the commit message? - [x] Has your PR been rebased against the latest commit within the target branch (typically `develop`)? - [ ] Is your initial contribution a single, squashed commit? - [x] Does `gradlew build` run cleanly? - [N/A] Have you written or updated unit tests to verify your changes? - [N/A] If adding new dependencies to the code, are these dependencies licensed in a way that is compatible for inclusion under [ASF 2.0](http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-a)? ### Note: Please ensure that once the PR is submitted, check Concourse for build issues and submit an update to your PR as soon as possible. If you need help, please send an email to d...@geode.apache.org. As the changes touch a huge number of files, the PR has been broken up into chunks to allow easier reviewing. To verify that all changes are correct and that no instances of "/" in region names/paths have been missed, I replaced the character in GeodePublicGlossary with a "~", updated oql.g to allow queries to be correctly parsed using the new character, and ran all tests. All failing tests were either directly comparing the region separator to "/", creating caches from XML containing regions/indexes using "/" or involved older client/server versions which would not be compatible with the changed separator. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.

However, geode-management, which does not have a > dependency on geode-core, uses the separator in several classes. > * The definitions of the separator character and string should be moved to > the geode-common module. > * The currently existing definitions of the separator in the geode-core > Region interface should be deprecated. > * All instances of hardcoded '/' characters and strings should be replaced > with references to the constants in geode-common. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
