Description Scott Greer

This EGL source

results.variation = "Assign to string #2";          
s = " z dsf  lkjlkj   slfkjeojcn9893n l9non lfdp9jpnk l9j 0n ;in09 noin   \b\f\n\r\t\\\"   !";  
TestUILib.reportStatus( jsLib.getFile(), jsLib.getLine(), checkString( s, " z dsf  lkjlkj   slfkjeojcn9893n l9non lfdp9jpnk l9j 0n ;in09 noin   \b\f\n\r\t\\\"   !", 80 ) );

doesn't generate correctly in either Java or JavaScript because the control chars present in these string literals are either missing / incorrectly represented in the IR:

					<RHS ID="272" eClass="org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl.StringLiteral" value=" z dsf  lkjlkj   slfkjeojcn9893n l9non lfdp9jpnk l9j 0n ;in09 noin
					\\&quot;   !" isHex="false" >


						<arguments ID="292" eClass="org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl.StringLiteral" value=" z dsf  lkjlkj   slfkjeojcn9893n l9non lfdp9jpnk l9j 0n ;in09 noin
						\\&quot;   !" isHex="false" >
