Description

I tried 1-7 escapes on the last SPLIT with backslash and they all failed to escape properly. Adding a 3rd trailing quote allows the expression to error out and continue the REPL without quitting.

[Stellar]>>> myval := 'hello,world'
hello,world
[Stellar]>>> SPLIT(myval, ';')
[hello,world]
[Stellar]>>> SPLIT(myval, ',')
[hello, world]
[Stellar]>>> SPLIT(myval, '\'')
[hello,world]
[Stellar]>>> SPLIT(myval, '\\')
>

Ran the REPL with the following command:

mvn exec:java \
-Dexec.mainClass="org.apache.metron.stellar.common.shell.cli.StellarShell" \
-pl metron-stellar/stellar-common
