[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-17667) Text value containing "/*" interpreted as multiline comment in cqlsh

["Erick Ramirez (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-17667?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17542862#comment-17542862 ] 

Erick Ramirez commented on CASSANDRA-17667:
-------------------------------------------

This looks like a regression. I can confirm that it works in C* 3.11.13 but not any version of C* 4.0.

> I use CQLSH command line utility to load some DDLs. The version of utility I use is this:
> {noformat}
> [cqlsh 6.0.0 | Cassandra 4.0.0.47 | CQL spec 3.4.5 | Native protocol v5]{noformat}
> Command that loads DDL.cql:
> {noformat}
> cqlsh -u username -p password cassandra.example.com 65503 --ssl -f DDL.cql
> {noformat}
> I have a line in CQL script that breaks the syntax.
> {noformat}
> INSERT into tablename (key,columnname1,columnname2) VALUES ('keyName','value1','/value2/*/value3');{noformat}
> {{/*}} here is interpreted as start of multi-line comment. It used to work on older versions of cqlsh. The error I see looks like this:
> {noformat}
> SyntaxException: line 4:2 mismatched input 'Update' expecting ')' (...,'value1','/value2INSERT into tablename(INSERT into tablename (key,columnname1,columnname2)) VALUES ('[Update]-...) SyntaxException: line 1:0 no viable alternative at input '(' ([(]...)
> {noformat}
> Same behavior while running in interactive mode too. {{/*}} inside a CQL statement should not be interpreted as start of multi-line comment.
