[jira] [Updated] (GROOVY-9019) triple-single and triple-double
quotes handle backslash escapes equally
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9019?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Ilguiz Latypov updated GROOVY-9019:
-----------------------------------
Description:
The documentation implies that triple-single quotes treat only escaping of single quotes with backslashes.
{code:java}
315 |'\''
316 |single quote (for single quoted and triple single quoted strings)
317
318 |'\"'
319 |double quote (for double quoted and triple double quoted strings)
{code}
[https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=groovy.git;a=blob;f=src/spec/doc/core-syntax.adoc;h=30b48fdfb4caafacae343f5dac9dde3372da65b2;hb=HEAD#l315]
My quick tests show that regardless of the surrounding triple quotes, backslash escaping works equally on single and double quotes.
{code:java}
s = '''foo\"bar'''
println "The triple-single-quoted string with a backslash-double-quote inside: ${s}"
s = """foo\'bar"""
println "The triple-double-quoted string with a backslash-single-quote inside: ${s}"
{code}
{code:java}
The triple-single-quoted string with a backslash-double-quote inside: foo"bar
The triple-double-quoted string with a backslash-single-quote inside: foo'bar
{code}
