[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Stop filtering the filename in XWikiAttachment#setFilename

18 Jun 2012

      Hi devs,

Here is what XWikiAttachment#setFilename looks like

    public void setFilename(String filename)
    {
        filename = filename.replaceAll("\\+", " ");
        if (!filename.equals(this.filename)) {
            setMetaDataDirty(true);
            this.filename = filename;
        }
        this.reference = null;
    }

Seriously ?

That does not make any sense and there is not even a comment for it.

I would go for removing this replaceAll and forget about anything that
really expect this API to do something that bad and avoid
retro-compatibility nightmare.

WDYT ?

Here is my +1.
