[jira] [Comment Edited] (OAK-74) avoid use of "internal" namespace

["Julian Reschke (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-74?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13624793#comment-13624793 ]

-------------------------------------------------------------

Using a non-URI as a namespace name makes it impossible to properly parse expanded names. The algorithm for that relies on a colon being present between {{"{"}} and {{"}"}}.

If this *does* work in Oak it means that the parser is broken in that it will confuse "{a}b" with a valid non-expanded JCR name. This is the case for classic Jackrabbit, see <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2288>

> We should try to avoid using the "internal" namespace in Oak (reminder: the string "internal" is not a valid URI)
