---------------------------------------
Summary: StandardResourceReferenceFactory cannot disambiguate
between a file path and a multi-line Java comment
Key: NIFI-16022
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-16022
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: NiFi API
Reporter: Daniel Stieglitz
Assignee: Daniel Stieglitz
Fix For: nifi-api-2.9.0
Text which begins with two forward slashes is misinterpreted by the
StandardResourceReferenceFactory in method createResourceReference as a File
when the ResourceType can be either FILE or TEXT. A case in point is the bug
discovered in NIFI-15975 where a JSLT transform with a leading single line Java
comment e.g.
{code:java}
// This is a single line comment in JSLT
{
"id": .userId,
"name": .firstName
}
{code}
is misinterpreted as a file instead of text. The assumption made in this ticket
is that two forward slashes although is a valid Linux path, is not common hence
it should not be interpreted as a file path.
