IndexOutOfBoundsException: Illegal start index with ARTIFACT_NAME about jenkins-rundeck-plugin HOT 7 OPEN

Please note that the regular expression does contain the backslash. It has been swallowed by the github form.

from jenkins-rundeck-plugin.

Also, if I double escape with backslash, the Jenkins job runs fine but the resulting URL is completely wrong:

http://packages/deb/elpq/snapshot/%7B.*.deb%7D:

from jenkins-rundeck-plugin.

I'm seeing this too. Jenkins sees the artifact and is able to archive it, but selecting even artifact=$ARTIFACT_NAME{.*} returns the same error.

This is when using a maven build with the release:perform goal.

I have a suspicion the issue is:

        Matcher matcher = TOKEN_ARTIFACT_NAME_PATTERN.matcher(input);
        int idx = 0;
        while (matcher.find(idx)) {
[snip]
                    idx = matcher.start() + artifact.getFileName().length();

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/regex/Matcher.html seems to state that the matcher stores a copy of the string. If the result of the replacement results in an index that is longer than the entire original option input, the error will occur.

That was it!
while (matcher.find(idx)) { needs to be while (matcher.reset(input).find(idx)) {. PR incoming.

On a related note, Maven 'automatic artifact archiving' does not play well this this feature, instead one must configure it as a post-build action.

One additional note; the intent of the 'idx' logic isn't obvious -- matcher.find() acts as an iterator, so keeping track of where the last match ended shouldn't be necessary.
