> [{{ReplaceText.DEFAULT_REGEX}}|https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/master/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-standard-bundle/nifi-standard-processors/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/processors/standard/ReplaceText.java#L87]
> is defined as "(?s:\^.\*$)", which is valid PCRE but must be expressed as
> "(?s)(\^.\*$)" in Java.
> The Java [Pattern class|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/index.html]
> specifies that patterns like "(?idmsux-idmsux:X)" are _non-capturing_, so
> anything but the default pattern and replacement value result in empty
> output. This isn't caught by unit tests because the code short circuits if
> the default pattern and replacement are found in
> [ReplaceText.onTrigger()|https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/master/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-standard-bundle/nifi-standard-processors/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/processors/standard/ReplaceText.java#L217].
> This hides the capture group problem from the unit tests and the default
> processor configuration, but causes the processor to produce empty output if
> using non-trivial patterns and replacements.
