Unexpected input during declaring channel from file pairs

[zillurbmb51]

Hi,

I was declaring channel from file pairs and getting error unexpected input
My code:
Channel.fromFilePairs("${params.out}*/*unrelated_imp.{bed,bim,fam}",size:3).set{extracted_imp3}

The res of the code in the log file is commented out using /* ...comment block ...*/
Attached is the log file. I never got this type of error. Any help?

Looks like a Groovy syntax error. Can you post the script that you ran?

Thank you @bentsherman
Attached is the original script.

I copied your script into VS Code with Groovy highlighting, it looks like the */ on this line:

Channel.fromFilePairs("${params.out}*/*chunk*csv* ...

Is interpreted as a comment closer. I think it is a limitation of the Groovy parser. I would remove the commented code or disable it in a different way. For example, in VS Code you can highlight many lines and do Ctrl+/ to comment them out with line comments.

Alternatively, you might be able to escape the */* as *\/*

Thank you. It works now!
