if i excpect to remove exceptions in my iruule

I mean if i transform that:

set MyRedir [string map -nocase {%3a : %3f ? %3d = %26 & %23 } $MyPath]

to:

set MyRedir [string map $MyPath]

is it correct?

Actually, they SHOULD be ignored... And are as far as the GUI is concerned. And whatever loads the iRule into memory when you edit it via the GUI (Or iControl for that matter). However the parser that reads the config file at boot time (And when performing a 'b load', or upgrading a configuration from one version to the next) isn't the same parser. And doesn't ignore some special characters after a comment... e.g. } and " are both counted AFTER a comment...

AFAIUI there is an outstanding bug on this one... Has been for a while (I've raised it at least twice at two different locations. Once when rebooting a 9.3 box that had a comment quote in an iRule, and once when upgrading from 9.4.8 to 10.1.0). (It's possible that they've fixed mine because they were " chars... But if so, then it's a bit strange that they didn't fix it for ALL characters... I suspect that { will also be affected... Maybe other things.

wao it seems not to be confortable with this issue.

Maybe the best way for me should be to remove all these parameters as i mentioned just before?

Actually i use this rule to force decoding for some characters live "%023"...but normally it's done by default..
