I'm having an odd issue where line-break characters in strings are converted to the \n string when copying properties between nodes. The code for copying properties is basically lifted from APOC:
private <T extends PropertyContainer> T copyProperties(Map<String, Object> source, T target) {
for (Map.Entry<String, Object> prop : source.entrySet())
target.setProperty(prop.getKey(), prop.getValue());
return target;
}
Didn't find any Github issues related to this, so I'm wondering what I might be missing? Ideas appreciated.
Sure, it's the string literal representation, but what I'm seeing is the line break character encoded in the original string being replaced with a literal\n in the copied value, i.e. the value is being transformed, versus copied verbatim. That doesn't seem to make sense, as the code doesn't suggest to me any transformation. Or, if that's a wrong analysis, how would I ensure the value is not transformed when copied?
