Menelaos Perdikeas updated LANG-885:
------------------------------------

    Description: 
The following code:

final String INVALID_ESCAPE="\\";
System.out.println(String.format("'%s' -> '%s'", INVALID_ESCAPE, 
    StringEscapeUtils.unescapeJava(INVALID_ESCAPE)));

... produces:

'\' -> ''

on the console. Since '\' is not a valid escape I would expect an Exception at 
runtime. Am I missing anything?
