Merged at <https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/commit/d94cccf1b53cff785a0864e84e903708117cf620> ---------------------------------------- Bug #16119: We reject the \r escape sequence as invalid, which makes it hard to write Windows strings in a Unix editor https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16119#change-71867 Author: Nick Fagerlund Status: Merged - Pending Release Priority: Normal Assignee: Josh Cooper Category: parser Target version: 2.7.20 Affected Puppet version: 2.7.19 Keywords: windows crnl newline EOL Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/1090 $mystring = "first line\r\nsecondline" This blows up, with an "Unrecognised escape sequence" error. Looking at puppet/parser/lexer.rb somewhere in the neighborhood of line 500: def slurpstring(terminators,escapes=%w{ \\ $ ' " n t s }+["\n"],ignore_invalid_escapes=false) It'd be cool to be able to insert a literal CR into a string, since we write strings in binary mode on Windows and it's really really hard to make text editors intermix LF and CRLF linebreaks in the same file. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
