Pattern containing Quote characters inconsistent error message #2247

Closed geno333 closed 3 months ago

geno333 commented 3 months ago

Bug Description

When selecting the C# regex type, the error messages conflict each other when entering Quote Characters in the pattern

Reproduction steps

Type this into the regular expression pattern
"xyz\"

Expected Outcome

either just the Quote Character, or the Escaped Quote Character should be the correct format. But here are the two error messages, that conflict with each other.

" An unescaped delimiter must be escaped; in most languages with a backslash () \" This token has no special meaning and has thus been rendered erroneous

Browser

Brave Browser (latest version)

OS

Windows 11

I see that the recorded error text was changed from what I typed in. Under the Steps To Reproduce the string that give conflicting error messages is

Quote xyz Backslash-Quote

" xyz \ " (without the spaces)
