Description Joseph Remes CLA 2004-07-06 16:27:32 EDT 
This is in build 200406301134 with Eclipse 3.0
I guessed at the component, might be UI?

When editing C code, the sequence '\\' is flagged with a red wavy and the text
is 'bad character sequence encountered : \ in file: etc...'
This is a perfectly valid special character constant, isn't it? The gcc compiler
thinks so.

Comment 2 John Camelon CLA 2004-07-15 11:16:52 EDT 
These defects will be addressed once we move to the new Scanner implementation 
we are working on in the HEAD.
Comment 3 John Camelon CLA 2004-08-10 10:41:12 EDT 
This defect has been fixed w/Scanner2 in HEAD.  
I shall commit the validating test once we have merged it to 2.0.1.
Comment 4 John Camelon CLA 2004-08-10 13:30:59 EDT 
The merge from HEAD to 2_0 branch is complete.  
JUnits validating these fixes have been committed to both branches. 
Marking as RESOLVED - FIXED. 
The next available 2.0.1 build shall contain these fixes along with Parser 
performance/scalability improvements.
