Public bug reported:
[Impact]
Short patterns like ~nfoo!~nbar or ~nfoo~nbar do not work correctly -
they are treated as ?name(foo!~nbar) / ?name(foo~nbar) rather than
?name(foo)?not(?name(bar)) / ?name(foo)?name(bar)
[Test Case]
Unit tests have been added that are run during build and check they are parsed
correctly
+ EXPECT_PATTERN_EQ("~napt~nfoo", "?and(?name(apt),?name(foo))");
+ EXPECT_PATTERN_EQ("~napt!~nfoo", "?and(?name(apt),?not(?name(foo)))");
[Where problems could occur]
Really just changing a string constant for this change in a function that
parses of words, so well, the only problem arising could be that words inside
patterns are recognized wrongly.
