LI81318: TOOLKIT / DESIGNER 2018 REGEX PATTERN PREVENT TO PUBLISH

APAR status

• Closed as Permanent restriction.

Error description

• 1. case
  ^[0-9]{3,6}+$|^$
  This pattern is marked as wrong in
  the API Designer 2018 (in Toolkit 5.0.8.7 it is OK).
  When I
  delete the plus sign "+" in API Designer 2018 then it's ok and
  I am able to publish the API.
  Why? It was OK in 5.0.8.7.
  
  2.
  case
  ^.{1,32768}$
  This pattern is OK in API Designer 2018 (in
  Toolkit 5.0.8.7, too). When I would like to publish this API I
  get the error:
  The multipart 'openapi' field contains an
  OpenAPI definition huk-message-api:1.0.0 (HUK Message API) that
  has validation errors.
  definitions.properties.pattern Does not
  match format 'regex' (context:
  (root).definitions.properties.pattern, line: 0, col:
  0)
  400
  
  When I reduce the upper limit (for example ^.{1,327}$)
  then I am able to publish.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• Users may experience validation errors in v2018 toolkit/designer

  the validation issues.
