Description

SplitText processor configured as follows:

• line split count = 1
• Remove trailing Newlines = true
  If the FlowFile being split contains 1 or more blank lines, those blank lines are not turned into split FlowFiles as expected based on above settings.
  However, those blank lines are still counted in the fragment.count attribute. The fragment.count should actually match the number of emitted FlowFiles.

Fragment count is likely to be used as a method to confirm all FlowFiles have been processed later downstream of splitText.
