[BUG]Logstash Version:2.4.1 logstash-input-file can't understood \* on windows: 1.path => "F:\Elastic Stack\Apache Log Files\aa.log" This works.

2.path => "F:/Elastic Stack/Apache Log Files/*.log" This works.

3.path => "F:\Elastic Stack\Apache Log Files\*.log" This doesn't work!

Logstash got stuck at "Pipeline main started",without giving any error information! It is a BUG! (How strange it is!)

(Note:It is not caused by "start_position","ignore_older" and the "sincedb".)
