---------------------------------

             Summary: UpdateRecord processor throwing PatternSyntaxException
                 Key: NIFI-5826
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5826
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core Framework
    Affects Versions: 1.5.0
         Environment: Nifi in docker container
            Reporter: ravi kargam
         Attachments: UpdateRecord_Config_Exception.JPG

with replacement value strategy as Record Path Value,

I am trying to replace square bracket symbol *[* with parenthesis symbol *(* in my employeeName column in my csvReader structure with below syntax

replaceRegex(/employeeName, "[\\[]", "(")

Processor is throwing following exception.

RecordPathException: java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException: Unclosed character class near index 4 [\\[]

It worked fine with other special characters such as \{, }, <, >, ;, _, "

For double qoute ("), i had to use single escape character, for above listed other characters, worked fine without any escape character. Other folks in Nifi Slack tried \s, \d, \w, \. 

looks like non of them worked.

replace function worked for replacing [ and ]characters. didn't test any other characters.

Please address resolve the issue.

Regards,
Ravi
