Hello. I'm new to the forum, so i hope that i'm posting in the right place.
I'm currently working on an OSC pattern matching (similar to regex) for the Arduino. An important matching symbol is the ASTERISK ( * ). OSC messages are backslash delimited and when put a pattern like this for example:
OSCMessage.match("/*/?");
Even thought the "/*" is clearly in quotes, i get the error:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Missing the */ from the end of a /* comment */

I've tried alternates to the "/*" like "\u002A", but that also doesn't work. this seems like an IDE bug to me.
any work arounds would be greatly appreciated.
