Description

Hi flume devs.

I saw a bug when using RegexAllExtractor: line 94:

if(names.get(grp-1) != "")

{ Attributes.setString(e, names.get(grp-1), val); }

Please help to file a jira and correct it to use String.equal(), otherwise it doesn't ignore empty groups.

(I don't think I can open a issue at cloudera jira.)

Thanks,
Mingjie
