[jira] [Updated] (NIFI-5094) EL Operations doesn't work for attributes having names with spaces

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5094?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Adil updated NIFI-5094:
-----------------------
    Description: 
If we declare an attribute having space in between the name, the EL operations doesn't work the way they should work. 

Example: 

Attribute Name declared(without quotes): 'Custom Extract Query' (value is a SQL query like:
{code:java}
select colA,colB,colC from dbName.tableName'{code}
)
 EL Operations tested: 
{code:java}
${${'Custom Extract Query'}:toLower:contains('select')}
 ${${'Custom Extract Query'}:toLower:isEmpty()}{code}
If I remove the spaces from the attribute name, the above EL operations work properly. 

Adding more explanation:
I tried multiple possible ways for this to work before mentioning it out as bug. 

Not working snippets:
{code:java}
${${'Custom Extract Query'}:toLower:contains('select')}
${${'Custom Extract Query'}:toLower:isEmpty()}
${'Custom Extract Query':toLower:contains('select')}
{${'Custom Extract Query':toLower:isEmpty()}
{code}
 


Working Code:
{code:java}
${${'CustomExtractQuery'}:toLower:contains('select')}
${${'CustomExtractQuery'}:toLower:isEmpty()}
${CustomExtractQuery:toLower:contains('select')}
${CustomExtractQuery:toLower:isEmpty()}
{code}

  was:
