Environment:Centos 6.8 and Java 1.8.0_66. Java driver version 3.4.2. Mongodb server version mongodb-linux-x86_64-rhel62-3.4.5. Not sure why 3.4.5 is not an option for "affects versions".
This 3.4.5 db has a number of collections (about 10). When I query a collection by
mycollection.find(Filters.regex("field","anything matching"))
against one collection, I generally get valid records from the WRONG COLLECTION if "field" is not actually a field of the documents in the chosen collection. If "field" is a valid field, or if I use eq instead of regex, this does not happen.
I would expect to get no matches if "field" is not present in the documents in the collection referred to by "mycollection".
Short of adding a lot of code to verify that only "field" names are used that are actually in the documents, I don't see any way to fix this problem. Please help!
