[jira] [Commented] (NIFI-5529) ReplaceText Now Requires Escapes in some cases

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5529?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16583782#comment-16583782 ] 

Otto Fowler commented on NIFI-5529:
-----------------------------------

[~Mike Boonstra] can you try this with [https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/2951?|https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/2951]  It addresses another regression.  It reverts the change/approach that most likely introduced this issue.

>             Project: Apache NiFi
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Extensions
>    Affects Versions: 1.7.1
>            Reporter: Mike Boonstra
>            Priority: Minor

> In some cases in v1.7.1 you need to escape backslashes in property ReplacementValue; like when "Replacement Strategy"="Regex Replace". Whereas in v1.4.0 you didn't. However, when "Replacement Strategy"="Always Replace" it works as it did in v1.4.0. 
> So for example if before you had this in v1.4.0:
>  * 
> {code:java}
> "ReplacementValue"=${csvRow:replaceAll(',','\n')}{code}
> In v1.7.1 you would need (note the extra backslash):
>  * 
> {code:java}
> "ReplacementValue"=$\{csvRow:replaceAll(',','\\n')}{code}
