     [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBRULES-2494?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Edson Tirelli closed JBRULES-2494.
----------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 5.1.0.M2
       Resolution: Done


Fixed. 

For metadata values that are surrounded by " ", Drools is now unescaping any escaped character inside it and removing the surrounding " ".

Example:

@text("It's an escaped\" string"  )

Will became:

It's an escaped" string

> Currently if you add the following metadata to a rule:
> rule xyz
> @text("it's an \"airplane")
> .....
> end
> if you print the metadata with:
> System.out.println(ksession.getKnowledgeBase().getRule("org.sample.myrules", "xyz").getMetaAttribute("text"));
> the output is:
> "it's an \"airplane"
> escaped characters should be handled correctly here.
