Hi there,

If I have:
searchString  = '*' + input + '*';
new EOKeyValueQualifier( anAttribute, EOQualifier.QualifierOperatorCaseInsensitiveLike, searchString );

And someone puts in some strange characters (e.g., "find[me"), I get the following exception.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Bad pattern *photogra[hy*for qualifier at com .webobjects .foundation ._NSStringUtilities ._bracketedStringFromPatternAnalyzer(_NSStringUtilities.java:740) at com .webobjects .foundation ._NSStringUtilities.stringMatchesPattern(_NSStringUtilities.java:785) at com .webobjects .eocontrol .EOKeyValueQualifier.evaluateWithObject(EOKeyValueQualifier.java:141) at com .webobjects .eocontrol.EOOrQualifier.evaluateWithObject(EOOrQualifier.java:103) at com .webobjects .eocontrol.EOAndQualifier.evaluateWithObject(EOAndQualifier.java:96) at com .webobjects .eocontrol.EOQualifier.filteredArrayWithQualifier(EOQualifier.java:635)
        <...>

I thought EOF would escape things automatically, but perhaps there's a bug there(?). How else might I escape the chars (WO5.3.3)?

Thanks.

with regards,
