JMeter 2.11 Regular Expression Extractor - Source Field - what is that for?
I was editing an old test case on my system, and I popped into the Regular
Expression Extractor to check some stuff, and noticed that there is a new field:
"Source Field" (above the "Reference Name" field that was already there).
I hadn't seen this field before - so I tried to look it up. None of the help
pages refer to it, and I couldn't find in the "Changes" page.
So, the question arises - what is that for, and how do I use it?

Posted by "Robin D. Wilson" <rw...@gmail.com>.
Very weird... I just re-installed JMeter 2.11, and set it up exactly the same
way as before - and the field went away, and the form changed back to the one in
documentation. The only plugin I have is the JMeterPlugins.jar - but we only use
that for the performance monitoring plugin feature. (And that is installed in
the 'reloaded' JM2.11, and it does not seem to affect the Regular Expression
Extractor at all.

The field is not in the latest trunk either.

I'm working on 2.11 r1554548 (the released version), and I don't have that
field in the Regular Expression Extractor GUI. It matches the
documentation, in my case. Maybe you have a plugin that adds that?

The Regular Expression Extractor GUI interface has the following setup:

(NOTE: the missing ":" on the "Source Field" is intentional - since on the

I am specifically referring to the "Source Field" which showed up in the JM2.11
stuff (may have been earlier, but I just now noticed it).
