Description Joseph Marques 2008-07-16 18:43:00 UTC

today, the expression:

resource.parent.trait[<some_trait>].startsWith = <some_value>

bombs with the error:

"Syntax error in your group definition: Trait name '[<some_trait>].startsWith' must be contained within '[' and ']' characters"

the same happens if the "trait" expression token is replaced with "pluginConfiguration" and "resourceConfiguration".  the substring matching should be supported regardless of which subexpression precedes it.

Comment 1 Joseph Marques 2008-08-11 17:45:42 UTC

rev1217 - fix tokenization routine so that substring comparison methods (startsWith, endsWith, contains) work with bracketed expressions; 
add unit test method to verify proper operation of tokenization routine;
added another unit test method to verify proper output of expression translation of bracketed expressions with substring comparisons;

Comment 2 Jeff Weiss 2008-08-20 19:57:20 UTC

rev1250, Verified expressions like the following evaluate correctly:

resource.trait[Trait.hostname].startsWith = dev
resource.trait[Trait.hostname].endsWith = com
resource.trait[Trait.hostname].contains = dev16
