Tim Allison updated TIKA-3730:
------------------------------
Priority: Trivial (was: Major)
> New ExternalParser doesn't work on Windows
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-3730
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-3730
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Tim Allison
> Priority: Trivial
> Fix For: 2.4.0
>
>
> [~tilman] noted that the external2.ExternalParser uses "replaceAll" on a
> regex where the replacement is a file path does not work on Windows. The
> replaceAll strips the file separators. I admit that I cannot figure out why
> this is is happening. I've tried a couple of combinations of backslashing
> etc, but nothing is working. I even tried Pattern.quote() and that doesn't
> work on Windows.
> If we back off to use "replace" with a string, everything seems to work.
