Whitespace and line endings in script elements are not preserved - fix?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBPM-981
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPM-981
Project: JBoss jBPM
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Core Engine
Affects Versions: jBPM jPDL 3.2
Reporter: Edward Staub
Assigned To: Tom Baeyens
The current Script implementation collapses script whitespace and eliminates line-endings
in scripts - even when within a !CDATA. I believe this is often bad and never good, apart
from trivial optimization.
Line-ending preservation is necessary for use of // comments.
Whitespace and line-ending preservation are useful for script compiler error messages that
call out a line and column position of the error.
These positions are meaningless if space has been collapsed and line-endings removed.
I happen to be experimenting with using other script languages (especially Groovy) for
which line endings are meaningful. You probably don't care about that, though!
The fix is easy: in Script.read(), replace both occurrences of getTextTrim() with
getText().
