RegExp Matcher always matches "" as positive!





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2002-01-10 13:05 -------

May be there is a need to protect against the infinite loops, but not by 
disabling "". The next logical thing would be to disable "**" in wildcard 
matcher. If someone exlusively uses regexp matcher, he would use regexp "" 
instead of wildcard "**".

Also, there are numerous ways to create infinite loops by other means, without 
regexp "" and wildcard "**":

<map:match type="wildcard" uri="x">
  <map:redirect-to href="y"/>
</map:match>
<map:match type="wildcard" uri="y">
  <map:redirect-to href="x"/>
</map:match>

So the bug as it formulated in the heading is (IMHO) invalid, but other issues 
could be raised as bugs: like what patterns to disable and from what matchers; 
or how to protect from infinite loops.
