[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBRULES-2761) Restriction operator parameters should be strings, not token sequences

Restriction operator parameters should be strings, not token sequences ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-2761 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-2761 Project: Drools Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Reporter: Wolfgang Laun Assignee: Edson Tirelli User defined operators (similar to "matches" or the temporal ops) may have parameters, written in '[' and ']' after the identifier denoting the relational operator. Text between the brackets is currently parsed as a "chunk", requiring the text to be composed from tokens recognized by the lexer. This is too restrictive since all Unicode characters that aren't letters (and this part of an identifier) are simply dropped. It should be simple to parse the text between '[' and ']' as a special form of recursive string, with brackets as delimiters. This means that op[foo[1]] is OK, but op{bar[[] is not.
