http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5791 RegExp Matcher always matches "" as positive! ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-01-10 14:08 ------- Perhaps the most confusing thing about the difference between RegExpURIMatcher and WildcardMatcher is that the same pattern ("") are treated as polar opposites. When I want to match the URI http://localhost/ and redirect to http://localhost/index.html, my first inclination is to use an empty string to match. If I wanted to explicitly match all requests, I would use "**" for the Wildcard matcher, and "(.*)" for the RegExp matcher. Both of those give me the same results for the replacement parameter {1}. It is for that confusion that I don't think it is valid for RegExp Matcher to match all URIs with the "" pattern. Perhaps the RegexpURIMatcher can silently rewrite the "" pattern to "^$" and log a warning message. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
