[jira] [Created] (FELIX-3344) [Framework] Filter parsing treats ** as invalid syntax

[Framework] Filter parsing treats ** as invalid syntax
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-3344
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3344
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Framework
    Affects Versions: framework-4.0.2
            Reporter: Richard S. Hall
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: framework-4.2.0


Our filter parser currently treats successive wildcards (i.e., **) as a syntax error. Technically, there is no reason this needs to be a syntax error. Successive wildcards are equivalent to a single wildcard. We could handle this by simplying allowing it or by collapsing it to a single wildcard and effectively ignore it.
