Data Model Regex - Matching on Angle Bracket (<)

[David]

I amy trying to use an angle bracket (< or >) as part of the raw text criteria for a regex in a data model using 6.0.3. Each time I try, it considers the angle bracket part of a new matched field, and I've not been able to successfully escape it. I've tried & gt; or & lt;, I've tried the single backslash that works in rex, and I've tried double and triple backslash to no avail.

Anyone able to help me out?

Received a response out of band. This is a known issue, and a fix is planned for a coming release. In my specific case, I was able to solve the problem by matching on [^a-zA-Z0-9_\s=] which met my requirement.
