Bug ID: 145806
Summary: Backreferences inserted as literal text in regex
replace if target contains comment
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.2.2.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
When the target of a regex replace contains a comment, the literal text of the
replace field is inserted instead of the backreferences, i.e. “$1 $2” is
inserted instead of the text found.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start with a document containing sentences ending with a full stop followed
by a single space
2. Search & Replace with regex (+ case matching)
Search:
([.?!]|\.”|\?”|!”) ([A-Z]|“|‘)
Replace:
$1 $2
Actual Results:
If the match contains a comment, the text “$1 $2” is inserted instead of the
backreferences to the matched text.
Expected Results:
The backreferenced text should be inserted (including the comment) as it is
with matches that don’t contain a comment.
Reproducible: Always
