Yes - recorded as JENA-1403.

The static compilation case (the constructor E_strReplase) should also throw a ExprException.

     Thanks

Dear Jena Developers,

I am doing some strange stuff with building regexes from data inside a sparql store. Sometimes that leads to invalid regexes which ends up throwing PatternSyntaxExceptions.

For my use case it is fine that these would not evaluate properly. I believe however that the specific exception about pattern syntax should be caught and turned into a ExprEvalException so that evaluation of queries can continue.

i.e. the following stacktrace (against jena 3.4.0) should be caught and not propegated.

java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException: Illegal repetition near index 10
^(?:-*[^-]){-9}

I suggest modifying the function

public static NodeValue strReplace(NodeValue nvStr, NodeValue nvPattern, NodeValue nvReplacement, NodeValue nvFlags) { String pat = checkAndGetStringLiteral("replace", nvPattern).getLiteralLexicalForm() ;
         int flags = 0 ;
         if ( nvFlags != null ) {
String flagsStr = checkAndGetStringLiteral("replace", nvFlags).getLiteralLexicalForm() ;
             flags = RegexJava.makeMask(flagsStr) ;
         }
return strReplace(nvStr, Pattern.compile(pat, flags), nvReplacement) ;
}

to be something like

public static NodeValue strReplace(NodeValue nvStr, NodeValue nvPattern, NodeValue nvReplacement, NodeValue nvFlags) { String pat = checkAndGetStringLiteral("replace", nvPattern).getLiteralLexicalForm() ;
         int flags = 0 ;
         if ( nvFlags != null ) {
String flagsStr = checkAndGetStringLiteral("replace", nvFlags).getLiteralLexicalForm() ;
             flags = RegexJava.makeMask(flagsStr) ;
         }
         try {
return strReplace(nvStr, Pattern.compile(pat, flags), nvReplacement) ;
     } catch (PatternSyntaxException ex){
         throw new ExprEvalException("PatternSyntaxException", ex) ;
         }
}

Does that seem sensible?

Jerven
