[jira] Updated: (LUCENE-573) Escaped quotes inside a phrase cause a ParseException

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-573?page=all ]

Michael Busch updated LUCENE-573:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: LUCENE-573_new.patch

I actually found another problem in the current unescaping code:
junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: Query /a\\\+b/ yielded /a\\+b/, expecting /a\+b/

The reason is that the method discardEscapeChar() cannot handle an escaped backslash followed by another escaped character.

I attach a new patch that includes the following:
- the QueryParser unescapes any escaped characters inside a phrase and can handle escaped quotes inside phrases
- for consistency reasons unescaping now is also being done in quoted range queries
- new implementation of discardEscapeChar() that solves the above mentioned problem (escaped backslash followed by another escaped character)
- new tests for TestQueryParser that tests the changes

All unit tests pass.

> QueryParser cannot handle escaped quotes when inside a phrase. Escaped quotes not in a phrase are not a problem. This can be added to TestQueryParser.testEscaped() to demonstrate the issue - the second assert throws an exception:
> assertQueryEquals("a \\\"b c\\\" d", a, "a \"b c\" d");
> assertQueryEquals("\"a \\\"b c\\\" d\"", a, "\"a \"b c\" d\"");
