            Bug ID: 57169
           Summary: variables will not evaluate if Name contains un-closed
                    paretheses
           Product: JMeter
           Version: 2.11
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Main
          Assignee: issues@jmeter.apache.org
          Reporter: fmatthewhudson@gmail.com

If a Name field contains a left parentheses that is not terminated with a right
parentheses the variables will not evaluate within Jmeter.  Specifically I
found this with a REST sampler but it is probably pervasive over all Jmeter add
components that have a NAME field.  I did also check and it is a problem with
FTP sampler as well.

example name that will cause this issue:
Test script ${__P(CNT}

The sampler name should not interfere with the evaluation of variables within
the sampler.

--- Comment #1 from Felix Schumacher <fe...@internetallee.de> ---
I probably don't understand your request correctly. JMeter will try to replace
every function looking string - that begins with "${". If the content in
between "${" and "}" is not well formed, it will choke.

If you want to send "${...}" literally to a server, you can escape the "$" with
a backslash as "\$". If not, than the content has to be well formed.
